Inter Miami drew with San Jose Earthquakes in Major League Soccer midweek action, marking the third time in five games they've dropped points.
The Herons' shaky defense came in after conceding four to Minnesota United. Their challenge on the night was the top scoring team in MLS. Just over 30 seconds into the game, Jordi Alba played a dangerous, looping cross into the box. Maxi Falcon drifted away from his marker to beat Daniel. The lead didn't last long, however, as Oscar Ustari played a poor pass in his own box which Chicho Arango rifled into the net.
Beau Leroux, the 21-year-old midfielder, put the Quakes in front in the 38th minute with a low-driven strike. His shot stung the left palm of Ustari, but the goalkeeper couldn't keep it out at his near post. Alba continued his strong performance in the first half with another cross that Tadeo Allende buried to get the Herons back on level terms. Leroux's midfield partner, Ian Harkes, re-established a lead five minutes later, this time beating Ustari at his far post.
The Herons scored a third of their own right out of the tunnel giving Allende a brace on the night. The score finished 3-3 on the night.
