It didn't take Rodrigo De Paul long to check off his first big milestone for Inter Miami CF.
The Herons' newest superstar got on the scoresheet for the very first time in Wednesday's Leagues Cup 2025 Phase One fixture against Pumas UNAM, sending Chase Stadium into a frenzy with a crucial equalizer on the stroke of halftime.
The World Cup-winner expertly controlled a cross from legendary teammate Luis Suárez, slotting a poised finish past Pumas goalkeeper Miguel Paul.
The leveler kick-started Inter Miami's eventual 3-1 comeback victory, clinching their advancement to the Leagues Cup quarterfinals.
Inter Miami fans and players will hope it's a sign of things to come for De Paul, who just joined the club late last month in a blockbuster move from Atlético Madrid.
He slots in alongside the rest of Inter Miami's star-studded squad, led by his Argentine international teammate Lionel Messi, as well as Suárez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.
