No Messi, no problem! Inter Miami have to cope without absent star and have two men sent off... but STILL manage to score a last-minute winner to beat MLS rivals Philadelphia Union

Daily Mail  

Despite missing star man Lionel Messi and having two men sent off, Inter Miami produced a sensational late winner to beat the Philadelphia Union. Leo Afonso wheels away in celebration after sealing a stoppage-time winner for Inter Miami It was a night to remember for the league leaders, despite the absence of Lionel Messi Down to 9 men. Messi is currently on international duty with Argentina ahead of Copa America next week Inter Miami received two red cards in Philadelphia, but still walked away with all three points Without Messi and Suarez, Miami initially struggled to find a flow offensively, not being credited with a shot on goal -- or a single shot, for that matter -- until the 39th minute. After seeing their ranks reduced to nine men -- first as David Ruiz was shown his second yellow card in the 69th minute before Tomas Aviles picked up his own second caution in the 88th minute -- Miami found an improbable winner through Afonso, snapping a brief two-match winless run in the process.
