Orlando City Extends Streak, Shuts Out Inter Miami 3-0

Orlando City delivered a commanding performance Sunday night, shutting out Inter Miami 3-0 on the road to extend their unbeaten streak to 11 matches. The victory marked their first over their in-state rivals since 2023 and their first against a Messi-led Miami squad.

Luis Muriel opened the scoring in the 43rd minute with a clinical counterattack finish, capitalizing on a long clearance from goalkeeper Pedro Gallese. Marco Pasalic added a second in the 53rd minute during a scramble in the box, and Dagur Dan Thorhallsson put the match out of reach with a stoppage-time tap-in.

Despite dominating possession with 62.3%, Inter Miami struggled in the final third—managing only four shots on goal. Their defensive lapses have become a consistent problem, and even the return of star forward Luis Suarez couldn’t spark a response.

Galaxy Salvage Late Draw vs. LAFC, Extend Historic Winless Streak

LA Galaxy extended their winless run to 14 games—but showed late-game grit, salvaging a 2-2 draw against rival LAFC in the latest El Trafico showdown. Marco Reus netted both Galaxy goals, including an 87th-minute free-kick equalizer that prevented another heartbreak loss.

Reus opened the scoring early, tapping in a rebound from Gabriel Pec’s shot in the 6th minute. But LAFC responded with goals from Denis Bouanga and Nathan Ordaz, taking the lead until Reus struck again late in the second half.

Bouanga, who leads LAFC with six goals, continued his strong form, while Mark Delgado added an assist against his former club. LAFC is now unbeaten in seven straight and trending up in the standings.
