The Herons to take on Toronto in Round of 32 clash
Inter Miami are at the pinnacle of the Eastern Conference table of MLS, boasting a convincing five-point lead over Cincinnati, who currently hold the second position. Their group stage campaign in the Leagues Cup saw a series of mixed results. They commenced their journey with a resounding victory over Puebla, as goals from Rojas and Suarez secured a two-goal triumph over the Mexican side. However, they succumbed to Tigres UANL in their most recent fixture, resulting in a second-place finish in Group N.
Toronto FC, on the other hand, occupy the eighth position in the Eastern Conference table of MLS, with nearly two dozen points separating them from their immediate opponents, Inter Miami. The Reds have remained unbeaten in their Leagues Cup campaign thus far, topping Group J. They played to a draw against NY Red Bulls and narrowly edged past Pachuca in the final moments of their previous encounter. Facing formidable opponents like Inter Miami, Toronto will need to neutralize their threats effectively if they wish to advance to the Round of 16.
Both sides have had commendable campaigns in the Leagues Cup so far. While Inter Miami will look to bounce back from their previous defeat, Toronto FC will be eager to hand Vice City an early exit from the Round of 32.

After providing his invaluable services to FC Barcelona, where he amassed a remarkable 313 appearances over 11 years, he transitioned to Vice City in 2023. Since joining Inter Miami, he has played 27 matches and scored 5 goals, further solidifying his legacy.
Lorenzo Insigne (Toronto FC)
While opinions may differ regarding Insigneâs current capability to compete for a spot in European clubs, it is undeniable that he was a formidable force every time he donned the Napoli jersey. Over 12 years, he made over 300 appearances for the Parthenopeans, leaving an indelible mark. In 2022, he switched his allegiance from blue to red by joining Toronto FC. Since then, Insigne has made 49 appearances and netted 14 goals for Toronto, showcasing his enduring talent and contributing significantly to his new team.
