It was a bittersweet opening of TQL Stadium as FC Cincinnati fell to Inter Miami on Sunday afternoon. A brand new home venue for the club, but the same old struggles continued to haunt FC Cincinnati in a 3-2 loss to Inter Miami.

Down by a goal within the game’s opening seven minutes and behind 2-0 at halftime, FC Cincinnati should certainly be applauded for their resilience in fighting back to level the score in the second half. But the good vibes lasted just three minutes after Nick Hagglund leveled the game in the 82nd minute as Inter Miami’s Gonzalo Higuain found the winner in the 85th minute.
