Lionel Messi<\/a>\u2019s Inter Miami<\/strong> took the pitch searching for their first victory at Nu Stadium<\/strong> following their opening-day draw against Austin FC<\/a>. However, they were unable to overcome a resilient NY Red Bulls<\/strong> side, who put in a strong performance to secure a 2-2 result.<\/p>\n

After falling behind early to a 15th-minute strike by Jorge Ruvalcaba<\/strong>, Inter Miami<\/a> found an equalizer just one minute before halftime thanks to a well-taken goal by Mateo Silvetti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

However, with only 13 minutes remaining on the clock, Julian Hall<\/strong> orchestrated a brilliant play to set up Adri Mehmeti<\/strong> for a tap-in, spoiling the party for Inter Miami and ensuring the points were shared at Nu Stadium.<\/p>\n
