Three Up, Three Down: Inter Miami manages home draw against Charlotte; who stood out, who stood around?

Under the circumstances, a 2-2 draw against Charlotte, still battling for a playoff position, was a respectable result. For the next to last time this MLS season, let's look at the three players who most and least impacted the match for the Men in Pink.

On paper, Inter Miami's team possessed fair quality; in reality, several players were coming back from injury or the international break and the side lacked the chemistry, communication or connectedness honed over hundreds or thousands of minutes playing as a unit. "The Crown" (as some prefer to call Charlotte FC) pressured Inter Miami all night but were -- like the Herons -- indecisive in the final third. The tie was a just result. Just not the one we hoped for.

These same teams meet again beginning at 6 p.m. ET Saturday, Oct. 21, on turf at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte. Lionel Messi, Robert Taylor, Benjamin Cremaschi and the other players returning from international play should be well-rested for the season finale. Let's hope for a final serving of "o jogo bonito" La Rosanegra style!
