THE BIGGER PICTURE: Martino returned to MLS to manage Inter Miami earlier this year after a stint with Atlanta United between 2016 and 2018. It would have been for nights like last night that he made the move back to the U.S. as he helped capture the Herons first-ever trophy, a title that sees Lionel Messi become the most decorated player of all time with 44 major honours.

WHAT NEXT FOR MARTINO? There's no doubt he'll be enjoying this success with Inter Miami but his attention must quickly turn to yet another big game. The Herons take on Cincinnati in the U.S Open Cup semi-final on August 24.
