FC Cincinnati stayed unbeaten against Inter Miami on the road last weekend. The game of the round ended without goals, which wasn’t expected at all. However, that only proves that Cincinnati plays competitive and effective football these days.

They have been defeated just once in the past 8 games. It was against the Crew at home, 2-4, but after that event, which was on July 12, Cincinnati didn’t allow a single goal. In three games, their net was intact.
