3 things Inter Miami should change against FC Cincinnati | OneFootball

Inter Miami will face FC Cincinnati on Saturday night for the 26th game of the MLS. Both teams come into the match with good league results. Inter Miami holds the top position in the Eastern Conference, while Cincinnati is behind the Herons in second place. If Inter Miami wins on Saturday, the Herons will clinch a spot in the playoffs.

With many defensive issues, Gerardo Tata Martino needs to sit and think about the gaming plan as fast as possible. The last time Inter Miami played against the Orange and Blue, they lost 6-1. Lionel Messi is unavailable for the match due to an ankle injury.

Here are three things Gerardo Martino should change against FC Cincinnati:

1 - Ian Fray for Marcelo Chelo Weigandt

It's been a while since Weigandt had a memorable game. His recent performance doesn't help his case. Defensively, he is slow. He doesn't get to the coverages. He is weak in one-on-one situations and ends up losing the duels. A large percentage of the goals conceded by Inter Miami come from his side. Every Herons fan wants to see Weigandt improve his game, but Ian Fray is the best option for the starting right-back position.

With his spare minutes in the first team this season, Fray showed more determination to attack and defend than Weigandt. His speed, versatility, and technique are superior, and Martino needs to realize that and start Ian Fray.
