Inside Inter Miami: Guest Dax McCarty helps analyze team strengths, weaknesses
Another record crowd. Another road win for Inter Miami. Lionel Messi and his teammates came away from Toronto with a much-needed 4-2 win after the embarrassing collapse at home against Orlando City.
Apple TV analyst Dax McCarty joins Inside Inter Miami this week to break down that win over Toronto, what the team did well, what still needs work, the return of Luis Suarez to the starting lineup, and goalkeeper Dayne St. Clair’s adjustment to the team.
Miami leads the Eastern Conference with 26 goals, but the defense is still leaky. Can a team that has to score three or four goals per game sustain that over a full season?
We also discuss the role of Rodrigo De Paul, who is the third-highest paid MLS player behind Messi and LAFC’s Heung-min Son, according to the MLS Players Association salary list released on Tuesday.
We hear from St. Clair, Suarez, Sergio Reguilon, and interim coach Guillermo Hoyos.
Also, McCarty shares his insights on the upcoming game against FC Cincinnati, the matchups to watch, and why Inter Miami should be worried. Will Miami be able to contain Evander and Kevin Denkey? Can Cincinnati stop Messi and Miami’s other talented attackers?
Lots to talk about this week with three games left before the World Cup break.
