Inter Miami, owned by David Beckham, visited New York City FC for their third MLS game on Saturday. Miami came into the game with two consecutive home wins and it was their first away game of the season. Although they suffered their first defeat of the season to a first-half own goal, the horrific incident from the game in the second half became the talking point of the game.

Miami captain and midfielder Gregore got injured in the 73rd minute of the game. The former Miami player Matias Pellegrini tackled Gregore, who had to take a wheelchair as he wasn’t able to walk. Fans were concerned for the Miami captain after the game.
