Inter Miami suffer late heartache as they battle from two goals down against Chicago Fire only to lose 3-2 in injury time... as Harvey Neville comes on but can't help struggling dad Phil

Phil Neville's Inter Miami suffered a third MLS defeat in a row after former Premier League striker Kei Kamara sealed a 3-2 win for Chicago Fire in injury time. 

Fire went into the game having failed to win a single game this season, and looked to have thrown away a 2-0 lead until the final moments, when ex-Norwich and Middlesbrough striker Kamara won it in the 92nd minute.

A suited Neville was left sweating at full-time, with his side now having lost three on the bounce - and even bringing his son Harvey on late on was not enough to get anything from the game. 


Chris Mueller and Carlos Teran also scored for the Fire (1-1-2, five points), who were the Eastern Conference's lone winless team going into the game in Fort Lauderdale. Brian Gutierrez had two assists while goalie Chris Brady made five saves for Chicago.

Franco Negri had a goal and an assist, and Nicolas Stefanelli scored for Miami (2-3-0, six points). Goalie Drake Callender had two saves.

Trailing 2-1 at halftime, Miami tied the game when Stefanelli headed Negri's cross into the back of the net in the 76th minute.

But Chicago rallied in stoppage time. After getting a pass from Javier Casas, Rodriguez delivered a perfect pass into the box to Kamara, who drove it past Callender for the game-winning goal.

Inter Miami, which had possession for 67.2 percent of the game, had 11 shots, with seven on target. The Herons completed 87.3 percent of their 589 passes.

The Fire had 17 shots, but just five were on target. Chicago completed 73.7 percent of its 278 passes.

Chicago took the lead in the 30th minute. After taking a pass from Maren Haile-Selassie along the right wing, Gutierrez centered a pass to a wide open Mueller, who roofed a shot past Callender.

The Fire doubled their lead eight minutes later, when Kacper Przybylko headed Haile-Selassie's long free kick from well outside the penalty box to Teran, who volleyed it over Callender from just a few feet away.

Miami halved the lead in the final minute of first-half stoppage time.

Jean Mota played a beautiful high-arching pass across the field into the penalty box where Negri corralled it before driving a low shot past a diving Brady.
