In a tightly contested MLS clash, Inter Miami CF secured a crucial 1-0 away victory over Columbus Crew, thanks to a decisive goal from rising star Benjamin Cremaschi. With Lionel Messi donning the captain’s armband, the Herons claimed all three points, taking them to the top of the Eastern Conference table with 18 points.
The match, played at Lower.com Field, saw both teams display solid defensive organization, but it was Inter Miami’s composure and flair that made the difference. The lone goal came in the second half when 19-year-old Cremaschi slotted home a smooth finish following a slick passing sequence initiated by Messi. The Argentine legend, widely regarded as the GOAT, once again demonstrated his influence with key passes and leadership throughout the 90 minutes.
Inter Miami, now on a three-game winning streak, have turned their season around with consistency and attacking prowess. With Messi orchestrating play and supporting talents like Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba, and Sergio Busquets, the Herons have become the team to beat in the East.
Head coach Gerardo “Tata” Martino praised his team’s resilience after the match: “We played against a strong Columbus side, but the boys showed character and composure. Cremaschi continues to grow, and Messi’s leadership has been pivotal.”
Columbus Crew, the defending MLS Cup champions, struggled to find rhythm in the final third despite moments of promise from Cucho Hernández and Darlington Nagbe. Their lack of clinical finishing proved costly against a well-drilled Miami defense.
With this win, Inter Miami CF sends a clear message to the rest of the league: they are serious contenders for silverware this season.
