Suárez Secures Victory for Inter Miami in Concacaf Champions League Round of 16
In the Concacaf Champions League Round of 16, Inter Miami secured a 2-0 win over Jamaican side Cavalier FC, though not without a few scares.
However, the real story wasn't the match itself, but the absence of Lionel Messi, who missed his second consecutive game. Javier Mascherano assured fans that it was simply a precautionary measure from the medical staff to protect the forward, but rumors are circulating about a possible muscle injury.
Without Messi, Cavalier FC put up a strong fight, even scoring what seemed to be a legitimate goal, only for VAR to intervene and deny them. It wasn't until the second half that goals from Allen and Luis Suárez ensured a comfortable win for the favorites.
