Buenos Aires, April 11 (NA) -- Inter Miami, with Lionel Messi in the starting lineup, drew 2-2 against New York Red Bulls in a match for the seventh round of the MLS, played tonight at the New Stadium, the new venue for the Florida team, inaugurated the previous week. The visiting team took the lead with a goal from Mexican Jorge Ruvacalba, while Argentines Mateo Silvetti and Germán Bertera turned the scoreboard around. However, midway through the second half, Adri Mehmeti scored the equalizer for New York, according to the Argentine News Agency. The draw left a bitter taste for Inter Miami, which had also drawn at home against Austin, and tonight could not celebrate in their new home, despite having earned the three points, with Messi and Rodrigo De Paul in good form. At the start of the second half, the Rosario star had an excellent opportunity, but his shot was slightly off target, and he also came close with a free kick, well saved by goalkeeper Ethan Horvath. With this result, Inter Miami is third in the Eastern Conference, behind Nashville and Chicago Fire, although the season is just beginning. In the next round, the team coached by Javier Mascherano will visit Colorado Rapids next Saturday.
