- Casemiro opened the scoring in the 32nd minute by heading home a Messi corner, before Luis Suárez added a 12th goal of the season just before halftime to put Miami ahead 2-1.
- Atlanta clawed back when Miguel Almirón equalized in the 35th minute, then striker Breel Embolo, who arrived from Stade Rennais for $18 million last month, converted an 87th-minute penalty in his MLS debut to secure the draw.
- Miami struggled to maintain its halftime composure, allowing Atlanta to control the second half. Midfielder Caicedo conceded the decisive late penalty that eventually leveled the match.
