[upbeat music] Hey, happy Monday to you all. Welcome to Football America. He is Alejandro Moreno. He is Hercules Gomez. I'm Christina Alexander, on a Met Gala Monday, where the theme is Fashion is Art. Well, for us, football is art, so thank you for that.

Alejandro Moreno· Host0:26
Did we not get the invite, or...?
Cristina Alexander· Host0:28
I think both of you got them.
Alejandro Moreno· Host0:29
No, no, I'm saying for, uh, the actual Met Gala, not for this.
Cristina Alexander· Host0:32
[laughs] [laughs] I, I think- I don't think we would have fit in. [laughs] It might have gotten lost in the mail.
Alejandro Moreno· Host0:36
Okay.
Cristina Alexander· Host0:36
Might have gotten lost in the mail. Uh, this didn't get lost, though. Coming up, Casemiro linked to a possible Inter Miami move. We will break that all down. And also, will Pochettino pick Zendejas, or will he just be ghosted for the World Cup? [laughs] [laughs] A lot to break down. But first, let's get to some MLS madness we saw this weekend. Inter Miami facing Orlando. So the table doesn't look too bad, right? Third in the Eastern Conference, still in the top 10, still doing well there. 19 points, tied with New England Revolution. However, Miami are still winless at the new stadium. They gave up a 3-nil lead over Orlando, who rallied to win 4 to 3. Miami led 3-nil in the, uh, up till the 33rd minute. Martino Quintero
