This Friday afternoon at Chase Stadium, Inter Miami CF II lost 1-2 to Chattanooga in the team’s home game. Idoh Zubida scored his first goal of the 2024 MLS NEXT Pro season in that encounter.
Cole Jensen began in goal for the Herons; the defense four consisted of Nyk Sessock, Santiago Garcia, Tyler Hall, and Tye Barton; Ricardo Montenegro, Cesar Abadia-Reda, and Pep Casas started in midfield; the attacking trio was led by forwards captain Santiago Morales, Ryan Carmichael, and Dairon Reyes.
Reyes made his debut in the game, which was noteworthy because it was his first after returning from a long-term injury. He had only joined the previous home game against the New York Red Bulls II as a second-half replacement.
Jesus Ibarra of Chattanooga scored the game’s first goal in the thirteenth minute. It was 0–1 in favor of the opponents. For the remainder of the half, the score remained unchanged.
After a spirited ball fight in the Inter Miami penalty area in the 46th minute, second-half replacement Zubida put one over the line to give the boys a 1-1 lead minutes into the second half. It was his first goal of the 2024 season and his first as a professional.
In the eighties, Chattanooga took a 1-2 lead as the hosts were unable to strike the back of the goal once again. After that, the score was maintained until the final whistle.
