In the absence of Lionel Messi, Segovia played for Inter Miami on Sunday, while the Reigers hit the Houston Dynamo in MLS.
The trip to Houston had formed as a tough assignment for Inter Miami, since the dynamo is a typical challenging opponent for the herons.
The men of Javier Mascherano, however, brilliantly used their second MLS match of the season, even without star man Lionel Messi.
Segovia shines while Messi is missing
Despite the coach who confirmed before the game that Messi was available, the Argentinian did not eventually travel to Texas. This decision led to controversy and even made several fans angry who had specifically bought tickets to see the world champion.
The absence of Messi was well managed by the team on the field, where Venezuelan Telasco Segovia offered a striking display. Segovia has just arrived in Florida this year and is impressed by his two games with the herons.
Segovia scored in both games. After debuting a week ago with a goal in Miami's draw against New York City FC, he led the 4-1 routing of the Dynamo with a brace this weekend. His important contribution in midfield game meant that Miami -fans Messi missed a little less.
The fine performance of Sunday by Segovia, who promises to be an important player for Mascherano this season, provided him with the recognition of 'icon of the match'.
Suárez also impressed as Latin -Americans
It was an exceptional night for a large part of the Latin Legion of Miami, with various players born in Central and South America in the lead in the victory of the Herons.
Segovia not only excelled in Shell Energy Stadium, but the experienced Luis Suárez delivered three assists and scored the ultimate goal of the visitors, and the Argentinian Tadeo Allende thought it was just before the second of the Floridians.
