First Leg

Inter Miami will enter Wednesday's second leg matchup aiming to turn the aggregate score around after falling 2-0 on the road at the Whitecaps in the opening match of the series last Thursday.

Possible Scenarios

The winner on aggregate (the addition of the result of both legs in the semifinals series) will advance to the final. Away goals serve as the primary tiebreaker.

With any win by a three goal margin (e.g., 3-0, 4-1, 5-2, etc.), Inter Miami advances to the final. Conversely, a loss or draw with any scoreline or a win by a one goal margin for Inter Miami would see the Club conclude its 2025 Champions Cup run.

Additionally, if Inter Miami wins 2-0 in regulation the match will go to extra time (2-2 on aggregate). The team with more goals scored during extra time advances. If extra time ends in a draw, the winner will be determined through a penalty shootout.

What's Next?

The winner of the series will secure one of the coveted spots in the final of the competition. If Inter Miami advances to the final, the team would face the winner of the series between LIGA MX sides Tigres UANL and Cruz Azul.
