Casemiro made his Inter Miami debut on the 25th, helping the Florida franchise beat CF Montréal 1-0 on Canadian soil.

His first match in front of the new fans took place this Saturday (1st). It featured Messi’s return after the World Cup — and a slip-up.

And the Brazilian defensive midfielder was in the spotlight for scoring an own goal.

Playing at Nu Stadium, Inter Miami opened the scoring against Columbus Crew thanks to Luisito Suárez (16') 

The visitors equalized after an attempted clearance by the former United midfielder and Brazil starter at the last World Cup (34'). 

It was Casemiro himself who misplaced the pass that led to the counterattack. 

Suárez chipped in, and Allen put Inter Miami back in front before halftime (50'). 

Messi came on in the 53rd minute.

Inter Miami had more possession and attacking momentum.

But they could not extend the lead.

Meanwhile, the other No. 10 on the field, Brais Méndez, made the difference.

A free-kick from the former Real Sociedad Spaniard — who was making his debut — brought Columbus Crew level in the 84th minute.
