Cóccaro wanted to score one for Messi and missed an incredible goal in the duel between Inter Miami and Montreal Impact

With Lionel Messi in the stands and without his Inter Miami shirt, Uruguayan Matías Cóccaro, formerly of Huracán, had the chance to score a great goal for the Montreal Impact at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale. Zorro, however, incredibly, fails to transform after remaining unchallenged following an error by Drake Callender, the irregular goalkeeper of Gerardo Martino’s team.

What happened? Eleven minutes of the first half passed in which the Canadian franchise defended itself and averted the danger with a shot that didn’t seem to pose any danger. But Callender, outside the area, misses his header and Cóccaro is left alone in front of the goal, even with the ball opening up.

That’s why he delayed a bit and let the goalkeeper recover, who dribbled again. But he had no shot left and that’s when the Ukrainian Sergey Krivtsov and the American Noah Allen regrouped and ended up stifling the scream of the former Globo del Parque Patricios striker.

Cóccaro shook his head, unable to believe the missed goal. The anger didn’t last long, however. The fact is that in the corner following the action, Fernando Álvarez jumped higher than everyone and gave the Impact the advantage.

All, of course, with Messi watching the game from one of the VIP boxes at the lovely Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, about 40 minutes north of Miami.

Some time later Cóccaro once again had a clear opportunity and even sent Callender to the ground, but when he was about to score he was blocked again by Krivstov, in an action in which the Montrealers asked for a penalty which referee Aleksandar Zhelyazkov did not did. to observe.
