On the morning of January 19 (Vietnam time), Inter Miami played against Club America in a friendly match to prepare for the 2025 season.
The two teams actively played tightly from the first minutes. Messi and his teammates could not create many dangerous situations, while Club America could not penetrate Inter Miami's defense in the first 30 minutes of the match.
In the 31st minute, Club America unexpectedly opened the scoring. From a chaotic ball in the penalty area, Club America player Martin took advantage of the opportunity very quickly to tap the ball into the Inter Miami net, putting the Mexican team ahead 1-0.
Not long after, Inter Miami had their answer. In the 35th minute, from a precise cross from Suarez, Lionel Messi was there at the right time and made a delicate header to equalize 1-1 for the home team.
In the second half, Club America once again took the lead. In the 52nd minute, Inter Miami goalkeeper Rios made a mistake when he missed the ball in a not-so-dangerous situation, allowing Club America's Reyes to arrive at the right time and score the rebound to bring the score to 2-1 for the away team.
Despite being behind, Inter Miami did not give up and created consecutive opportunities. In the 90+2 minute, the home team finally found the equalizer 2-2 thanks to Aviles. This was also the final score of the match.
On January 30, Inter Miami will continue to have a friendly match with the Universitario de Deportes club from Peru.
