New York Red Bulls - Inter Miami: As it happened

New York Red Bulls hit four past Inter Miami in stunning home victory.

The Herons were looking to prove that they can perform without Lionel Messi but were behind after just two minutes when Lewis Morgan came back to haunt his former team. NYRB could have been further ahead in the first half but were held to a one-goal lead at the break. 

Soon after halftime they doubled their advantage as Morgan added a second. He turned provided 15 minutes later and made a stunning attacking run to set up Wikelman Carmona for the Red Bulls' third of the game. Shortly after Morgan scored again to complete his hat trick and secure a resounding 4-0 victory for NYRB. Incredibly, the impressive Dante Vanzier claims the assists for all four goals. 

It's a wake-up call for Inter Miami but today is all about the resurgent New York Red Bulls, who put in a performance that ranks among the very best that we've seen from an MLS side in 2024.

Famous win for New York Red Bulls

Inter Miami had made an impressive start to the 2024 campaign but they were thoroughly outplayed by NYRB. Former Miami forward Lewis Morgan was decisive for the hosts, scoring three and creating a fourth to pile the pain on his former employer. 

Miami were without some key players, but this performance will be a real concern for Tata Martino going forward.

FINAL: Lewis Morgan leads NYRB to impressive victory

William Gittins
90+5

Peeep peeeep peeeeeeeep

New York Red Bulls run out 4-0 winners over a sub-par Inter Miami side. A real statement performance from NYRB!

William Gittins
90+4

Inter Miami clip another ball forward towards Campana but he can't bring it down. The Herons have ran out of ideas here, a chastening defeat for Tata Martino's side. 

William Gittins
90+3

Luis Suarez bundles through the challenges on the edge of the box to make space for a shot. It's a decent opening but he snatches at the shot and it bounces wide of the post. 

William Gittins
90+1

It's a little surprising to see Suarez, Busquets and Jordi Alba remaining on the field until the very end. Their legs will need to be rested this season and there's been nothing left for Miami to play for in the past 20 minutes. 

William Gittins
90

There will be five minutes of added time, the fourth official has announced. 

William Gittins

The Herons have been poor but young Alfonso has shown something on the left wing for them in the second half. He looks pacey and direct and a useful contrast to Miami's more stationary forwards. 

William Gittins
88

Inter Miami are nearly on the scoreboard as Sean Nealis deflects a Luis Suarez cross onto his own crossbar. 

William Gittins

Sergio Busquets is dispossessed midway inside his own half but the referee awards a foul to Inter Miami. That looked a little soft.

Ronald and Mitchell come on. Stroud and Morgan are replaced. 

Lewis Morgan receives a standing ovation after contributing three goals and an assist today. 

William Gittins

Jordi Alba

The Inter Miami left back is booked for his angry reaction after that foul. 

William Gittins
83

Jordi Alba is penalised for a free kick near the touchline, a clumsy challenge made out of frustration. 

William Gittins

Strong run from Campana to come forward and find Suarez on the left. He holds the ball up well but allows NYRB the chance to get back into shape. 

Their attack loses momentum. 

William Gittins
79

There's a double change for the hosts. Vanzier and Gjangaar and replaced by Hall and Ngoma for the final stages. 

Julian Hall, incredibly, is just 15 years old!

William Gittins
78

VAR decision - No goal!

After a quick glance at the screen the referee decides to award the foul, wiping out Noah Allen's goal. 

We're back to 4-0!

William Gittins
77

VAR check - Foul

Hold on, the challenge by Alfonso is being looked at by the referee in the pitch-side monitor...

William Gittins
76

Gooooooaaaaal! Noah Allen

The visitors get one back and it's the Floridian native who finishes brilliantly after good work from Alfonso on the left flank. 

Neat play from Inter Miami, at long last. 

William Gittins
75

Ryan Sailor and Casas de Abadal come on for Inter Miami. Tomas Aviles and Julian Gressel are replaced.

This is one-way traffic now, with NYRB completely dominant. 

William Gittins
71

Phew...

After a breathless spell of action NYRB have raced into a four-goal lead, taking advantage of an Inter Miami side who struggle in transitions. They have outplayed the Herons and deserve their healthy lead. 

William Gittins
69

Goooooooaaaaaaal! Lewis Morgan

Incredible! He's got a hat trick against his former team!

Inter Miami want a penalty at the other end of the field but it's a brilliant counterattack from NYRB and a confident finish from Morgan. 

William Gittins
67

NYRB curl in another corner kick and Dylan Nealis is penalised for a clumsy challenge at the back post. 

William Gittins
66

Inter Miami are still appealing for a foul on Tomas Aviles on the halfway line, but the referee saw nothing wrong with the challenge and the goal will stand. Lewis Morgan has been absolutely outstanding today and claims an assist to add to his brace of goals. 

William Gittins

New York Red Bulls into a commanding lead

William Gittins
65

Gooooooaaaaaal! Wikelman Carmona

Sensational work from Lewis Morgan on the left flank to charge through the Miami defence. He gets into the box and pulls the ball back to Carmona who fires home from close range. 

The Red Bulls have a three-goal lead!

Brilliant work from Luis Suarez on the left flank. He curls in a left-footed cross towards Campana, but the Ecuadorian's striker goes just wide of the post. 

William Gittins

Franuel Amaya's corner is a dangerous one but Inter Miami defend it well. 

William Gittins

Corner kick to Inter Miami. 

William Gittins
61

Gressel's corner kick goes all the way out to Luis Suarez at the back post. He whips in a front post cross and Meara gets across well to block.

Noah Allen clips the ball out to Jordi Alba on the left. He curls in a cross but it misses Suarez and Campana in the box. 

William Gittins

Leo Alfonso and Yarrick Bright come on for the Herons. Robert Taylor and Lawson Sunderland are replaced. 

William Gittins
57

Inter Miami are enjoying a bit more of the possession but still look susceptible at the back to those sharp Red Bulls counterattacks. It looks like Tata Martino is readying some changes.

Watch: Lewis Morgan doubles NYRB lead

Morgan has looked brilliant so far this afternoon!

NYRB win the ball high and look to create a quick chance. Vanzier tries to whip in a cross but loses his footing and the ball bounces out for a goal kick. 

William Gittins
48

The rain has slowed at the Red Bull Arena, giving the game a slightly less frantic feeling. Suarez tries to feed a pass through to Sunderland but it's a little under-hit. 

William Gittins
47

No changes for either team at the break but Inter Miami have started well in the second half. 

Lawson Sunderland head the ball through to Luis Suarez, who briefly looks to have a sight of goal, but he can't quite reach the pass. 

William Gittins

And we're back!

Finally, Inter Miami are back on the field and the second half is underway.

The Herons were outplayed in the first half at Red Bull Arena, thrown off their game by an impressive 45 minutes from the New York Red Bulls.

The hosts should be further ahead!

William Gittins

Inter Miami have made a bit of a change in midfield to help deal with Venzier when the NYRB striker drops deep. Gressel and Busquets are now playing in a double pivot, Lawson Sunderland has a freer role further forward.

Luis Suarez looks to keep Best XI spot

Last weekend Luis Suarez came off the bench to score twice and turn the game on it's head for Inter Miami. That game-winning brace secured Suarez a place in the MLS Team of the Week, alongside two other Golden Boot contenders. 

Leonardo Campana was also named on the bench in the select XI and starts for Inter Miami today. The Herons will, however, be without Federico Redondo for today's game. The young midfielder is on international duty with Argentina's Under-23 squad.

Inter Miami in the house

The Herons look relaxed as they arrive at Red Bull Arena ahead of today's MLS clash against New York Red Bulls. Tata Martino has gone for an attacking starting XI with both Leonardo Campana and Luis Suarez in the forward line, Robert Taylor and Jordi Alba starting as two offensive-minded wing-backs. 

Those decisions will give Inter Miami real fire-power in the final third but they will have to be careful against an NYRB side famed for their hard-working, high-pressing nature.
