- Alba scored his first Inter Miami goal
- Messi also on scoresheet in 4-1 win
- Herons have booked place in Leagues Cup final
WHAT HAPPENED? The Inter Miami left-back scored his side's third goal of the first half to put them 3-0 up just before the half-time break. It came shortly after his former Barcelona team-mate Lionel Messi scored a fantastic long-range goal of his own.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Miami have been in electric form ever since Messi's arrival from Paris Saint-Germain, and the Herons have now booked their place in the Leagues Cup final with a thumping 4-1 victory over Philadelphia Union, who struggled to contain the visitors' ex-Barca contingent.
WHAT NEXT FOR INTER MIAMI?: The Herons have booked their spot in the final of the Leagues Cup, where they will face Nashville on August 19 after their 2-0 victory over Monterrey.
