Messi is still unavailable after suffering an injury in the League Cup 10 days ago. True to the saying, "No Messi, no party!", Inter Miami continues to face a bleak outcome.

In the second minute, Orlando City took a 1-0 lead thanks to a goal from striker Luis Muriel, who dribbled into the penalty area and fired a shot past Inter Miami goalkeeper Oscar Ustari. But just three minutes later, Italian midfielder Yannick Bright leveled the score with a spectacular volley from just outside the 16.5-meter line.

In the following minutes, Orlando City played better and created many dangerous opportunities, but they were unable to score.

It wasn't until the 50th minute that they scored to take a 2-1 lead through Luis Muriel, before Martín Ojeda and Marco Pasalic scored in the 58th and 88th minutes respectively to secure a 4-1 victory for the home team.

With this result, Inter Miami has dropped to sixth place in the standings with 42 points, nine points behind leaders Philadelphia Union.
