Following the final whistle, Inter Miami caretaker manager Guillermo Hoyos was full of praise for his veteran striker’s contribution. “I don’t think it was just a goal; it was a ‘golazo’,” Hoyos said, as quoted by ESPN. “When you have players of this caliber, it is only natural that they might get frustrated when they find themselves on the bench. But here, there wasn’t a hint of that kind of attitude.”
Inter Miami face a short turnaround as they prepare to host New England at the Nu Stadium this weekend. Currently just one point behind Eastern Conference leaders Nashville, the Herons will be looking to maintain their eight-game unbeaten run and continue their momentum under Hoyos.
