Inter Miami asserted their dominance with a resounding victory over Orlando City in the Major League Soccer (MLS) as Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi inspired them to a remarkable performance.
Suarez who had yet to find the net in his initial two MLS appearances, broke the goal drought in style, scoring twice within the opening 11 minutes courtesy of precise deliveries from Julian Gressel.
Suarez later turned provider, setting up Rob Taylor before the legendary Lionel Messi showcased his prowess with both a close-range finish and a headed goal from a Suarez cross. The goal sealed a convincing 5-0 win.
