Inter Miami travel to Panama next to face Sporting San Miguelito as their 2025 preseason tour continues.
Javier Mascherano’s side drew their first two games of preseason against Club America and Universitario de Deportes. Mascherano seemingly plans to play a 4-4-2 formation with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez leading the way in the attack. He’ll be upset that the side failed to score last time out, but happy with the clean sheet after conceding two goals against America.
The game at Estadio Rommel Fernandez Gutierrez will kick-off Sunday, Feb. 2 at 5 p.m. ET. After that, the Herons travel to Honduras to face Olimpia before returning to the United States to play Orlando City in their final preseason game.
