- Lionel Messi is the heavy favorite for a second straight MLS MVP and won the Golden Boot, while Inter Miami is 19-2-3 this season when scoring at least two goals.
- Messi opened the scoring early and added another before halftime, aided by a Mateo Silvetti pass that created an open-net chance, then set up Tadeo Allende's two late goals to seal the 4-0 rout.
- The Inter Miami-Cincinnati winner will play either top-seeded Philadelphia Union or fifth-seeded NYCFC in the East final, with the MLS Cup final set for Dec. 6.
