His first 45 minutes seemed flawless, but Suarez’s chance at a perfect half was thwarted by a VAR review that disallowed his goal, ruling him offside right before halftime.
Despite the disallowed goal, Suarez played a crucial role in assisting teammate Robert Taylor for the third goal. Under Gerardo Martino’s guidance, Inter Miami surged to a commanding three-nil lead before the break.
