"Lionel Messi's absence was keenly felt as Inter Miami suffered a surprising 4-3 defeat to FC Dallas, a game that saw Miami initially take a 3-1 lead."
"Javier Mascherano's decision to rest star players backfired as Miami battled to retain their lead in the second half, ultimately succumbing to Dallas's comeback."
Inter Miami faced their first MLS defeat of the season, losing 4-3 to FC Dallas at home. Coach Javier Mascherano opted to rest stars like Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Jordi Alba, while Sergio Busquets did not play. Miami started strong, leading 3-1 after goals from Fafa Picault, Allen Obando, and Ian Fray, but the game turned when Dallas scored three goals in quick succession. The defeat complicates Miami's preparations for a crucial Champions Cup semi-final clash with Vancouver Whitecaps, who won their match 3-1 against Minnesota United.
