Inter Miami 1-0 Charleston Battery
Ariel Lassiter's second-half winner lifted Inter Miami into first place at the 2022 Carolina Challenge Cup
Inter Miami jumped out in front in a third straight preseason game on Tuesday, but this time the team did not allow the lead to slip away.
Ariel Lassiter scored for the second consecutive match and that was enough to give a reserve-filled Inter Miami side a 1-0 victory over the Charleston Battery in the 2022 Carolina Challenge Cup on Tuesday night. Lassiter found the back of the net in the 77th minute with a low curler that came off a quality feed from Harvey Neville, and the South Florida side’s defense avoided the type of mistakes that cost them in the last two matches and closed things out from there.
The win moved Inter Miami to four points in the competition and a triumph away from claiming the trophy. The Herons are 2-1-3 in this winter’s exhibitions.
