Inter Miami are enjoying a golden moment in the MLS, and the match against Charlotte FC was no exception. At the Bank of America Stadium, Tata Martino's side showed why they are on an unbeaten run away from home. With goals from Robert Taylor and Benjamin Cremaschi, Inter Miami secured another three points, winning 2-1 and extending their winning streak to four consecutive matches.

It all started in the 30th minute when Taylor opened the scoring. It was a move of pure synergy. Cremaschi, with his enviable vision, found Alba inside the area, who didn't hesitate to lay the ball off to Taylor in the center. The Finn, showing all his skill, sent the ball into the back of the net. It was Taylor's fourth goal of the regular season and his fifth in all competitions in 2024. Alba's assist was his sixth in the regular season and seventh in all competitions. And Cremaschi, ever-present, added his third assist of the season.

But Charlotte FC weren't willing to give up the points easily. They fought back, sought an equalizer and managed to level the score, leaving everything open for the second half. The game remained tense, with both teams looking to win. And just when it looked like things would end in a draw, Cremaschi struck again to seal the fate of the match. In the 86th minute, a precise low cross from Gressel found Cremaschi inside the area. The midfielder, with coolness and precision, slid in to bury the ball in the back of the net, securing victory for the Herons.

Tata Martino couldn't hide his satisfaction, even more so because it was a challenge where getting three points is much celebrated: "The team has been consistent with our recent performances: serious and hard-working. We defended well when we needed to and were very precise when we attacked. It was a tough and challenging game, with a lot of external pressure on every dubious call. But the victory we achieved is very valuable," said the coach after the match.

To play away from home and maintain an unbeaten streak of eight matches is remarkable. It's proof that Inter Miami are more than on the right track, without their main players, due to the Copa America 2024.
