Inter Miami, playing without Lionel Messi, secured a thrilling 3-2 victory over Chicago Fire, overshadowing Robert Lewandowski's Major League Soccer debut. Luis Suarez scored twice, and Preston Plambeck emerged as the unlikely hero with a late winner.

Suarez and Plambeck Shine

Uruguayan veteran Suarez, who captained Miami in the absence of Messi and Rodrigo de Paul, scored from the penalty spot and a brilliant backheel assist from German Berterame. Plambeck, a 20-year-old product of Miami's youth system, came off the bench to score the 87th-minute winner, volleying home the rebound after goalkeeper Chris Brady had parried Suarez's shot.

Lewandowski's MLS Debut

Lewandowski, the 37-year-old Poland striker, made his MLS debut having signed from Barcelona after their Spanish championship win. Despite playing 63 minutes, his attempt was blocked early, and Chicago initially took the lead through a calamitous own goal by Miami goalkeeper Rocco Rios Novo.

Chicago's Puso Dithejane equalized in the 67th minute, but Plambeck's late goal ensured Miami's victory. Lewandowski's debut, though not resulting in a win, showcased his presence on the field as he continues to adapt to his new league.
