Luis Suárez finally finds form in MLS with Inter Miami

The Uruguayan has found his scoring boots at Inter Miami and is scoring for fun at his new team.

Luis Suárez is already the new hero of Inter Miami. With the absence of Messi, The Herons needed a leader who could make up for the lack of magic, and they have succeeded.

Since the start of the season, the Uruguayan has scored 6 times and has provided 5 assists; against DC United, El Pistolero once again showed off his scoring abilities with a brace in less than half an hour. Tata Martino can breathe easy, Suárez has finally arrived in the United States, just in time.

The arrival of Suárez to MLS was the end of his goal-fuelled story in Brazil. However, during pre-season, the Uruguayan’s lack of a scoring touch left more questions than answers (he only managed 1 in 7, against Al Hilal,).

But when it came to the moment of truth, Luis Suárez has more than fulfilled his duty. Against DC United, the forward managed to turn the tide in a match that seemed destined to end a draw. Half an hour later, he had scored a brace, including a superb goal, to put Inter Miami at the top of the Eastern Conference table.

“When you talk about Luis, it’s a similar situation to Leo (Messi), Busi (Busquets), Jordi (Alba). It’s nothing new. These are things he’s done throughout his career. We had decided that he would play 30 minutes and he changed the game for us. It makes me very happy because every game he looks better and the ease with which he scores goals is a great advantage for us,” commented ‘Tata’ Martino at the end of the match in Washington.

At 37-years-old, and when his knee problems do not bother him, Luis Suárez has shown that he is still in fine form and can play at the top. Only at Gremio did he score more goals in his first few games
