Inter Miami head coach Javier Mascherano said he recognized the importance of reaching the Concacaf Champions Cup semifinals as a young club, but warned against taking the quarterfinal series against LAFC for granted.
Miami, which began life in MLS in 2020, is in its second season in North America’s top club competition, after falling 5-2 on aggregate over two legs to Liga MX side CF Monterrey in last year’s quarterfinals.
