One of Inter Miami’s standout players this season has been Luis Suárez, who arrived from Brazil to strengthen Gerardo Martino’s squad. On Saturday, he made his debut as a goal scorer in the 2024 Leagues Cup. After Las Garzas’ victory over Puebla at Chase Stadium, the Uruguayan forward spoke in the mixed zone.

Hard work needed to compete in Leagues Cup, says Suárez
Suárez’s first impression was about the tournament between MLS and Liga MX in general.
“You have to adapt to the system, the league, the regulations. This is the second year of this competition, but based on experience, Inter won it, so it was very important for the club. This second year we have to approach it the same way.
“With the mission to fight until the end, some people will like it, and others won’t,” the former Liverpool and Barcelona star continued. “Our duty is to work hard and play when the schedule tells us to.”
The next match for the Fort Lauderdale franchise will be on Saturday, August 3, against Tigres UANL in Houston, Texas.
“I think we are a team that, if we come out with the intensity we need, we always score a goal in the first few minutes,” Suárez said. “Today it was important to start by scoring, and it became difficult for them with the score against them. In the second half, we were able to seal it with a two-nil victory.”
