Was the 7-1 win the beginning of an Inter Miami turnaround — or just one incredible night?
After going five consecutive matches without a victory, Inter Miami finally broke through in spectacular fashion, destroying CF Montréal 7-1 behind four goals from Lionel Messi.
Now comes the next test.
On this episode of Battered Herons, we're previewing Saturday night's matchup between Inter Miami and Atlanta United as the Herons look to prove that their performance against Montréal wasn't a one-off.
What should Miami carry over from that victory? What still needs to improve? Which lineup should we see against Atlanta? And can Messi follow up one of the most dominant individual performances we've seen from him in an Inter Miami shirt?
We'll break down the matchup, our preferred starting XI, players to watch, tactical keys and what Atlanta could do to cause Miami problems.
There's also another major storyline hanging over this game as Kily González prepares to begin his tenure with Inter Miami and a newly reshaped roster comes out of the transfer window.
One win ended the streak.
Now Miami needs to prove it was actually a turning point.
