Inter Miami Lose the Plot in Seattle Sounders Defeat<\/h2>\n

Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami were the overwhelming favourites to beat Seattle Sounders in the Leagues Cup final. The Sounders, however, flipped the script, taking control of the game from the first quarter.<\/p>\n

They pulled ahead with a goal from Osaze De Rosario in the 26th minute, before Alex Roldan (penalty; 84′) and Paul Rothrock (89′) put the game to bed. Seattle did not have much of the ball, but they finished the game with six shots on target. Miami, meanwhile, dominated possession, but none of their nine shots landed on target.<\/p>\n
