Inter Miami co-owner and former England player, David Beckham has disputed the claims that Miami was given favorable treatment during the tournament.
David Beckham also addressed the implication saying:
“People keep saying that every time Leo scores one of these goals, every time [Sergio Busquets] makes one of these passes, every time Jordi [Alba] makes one of these runs, people say, ‘Is it a fix? And it’s the biggest compliment anyone can give these players because it is like a movie,” he said.
“You watch these players play, and it’s emotional watching them because everything about their play is beautiful. Everything about their mannerism is beautiful. Everything about them as individuals off the pitch is beautiful. So when they play, it’s emotional.”
Recall that Saturday’s Leagues Cup 2023 final more than lived up to its high-profile billing at GEODIS Park, as a breakneck, hard-fought ninety minutes saw the title decider head to a penalty shoot-out. In the end, it was the underdogs Nashville SC who would come up short, as Inter Miami CF claimed a first-ever title in the club’s history in dramatic fashion.
