“In moments of real adversity, you learn a lot about yourself and the players you have, and I was incredibly proud (pause) of the young boy they were booing. It showed great courage. It hurt. It hurt. But I understand, and I think he understands. Do I agree with it? Probably not. But I’m his coach and I believe in young players.”
-- Inter Miami coach Phil Neville after the 1-0 loss at home to the New York Red Bulls, which left the Herons last in MLS's Eastern Conference with four straight defeats, on the booing his 20-year-old son Harvey received when he came on in the 88th minute and each time he touched the ball. Inter Miami played five players who are 20 years old or younger Benjamin Cremaschi, Edison Azcona, David Ruiz, Ian Fray and Harvey Neville. (Azcona and Ruiz are just back from the U-20 World Cup.)
