"A sensational Tadeo Allende hat trick helped Inter Miami to defeat New York City FC 5-1 and claim the MLS Eastern Conference in emphatic fashion at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale on Saturday evening. Allende took advantage of some uncharacteristically slack NYCFC defending to score twice in the opening 24 minutes before adding his third late on after Mateo Silvetti and Telasco Segovia had put the game out of reach."
"Pascal Jansen's side had done reasonably well throughout, containing a subdued Lionel Messi and restricting Miami to relatively few clear-cut chances. But just as the visitors had gained the momentum and appeared likely to find a route back into the tie, Messi provided an assist for Segovia to give Miami breathing space and kill off the NYCFC fightback midway through the second half."
"Jansen accused his side of showing naivety chasing the game in the second half, stating that the visitors left themselves too vulnerable to Miami counter-attacks at 2-1 down. I said to my guys after the game that this is not something I recognize in my team, Jansen said in a post-match press conference. These transitions were just handed over. That's based on being very naive."
