It looked to be an upset brewing when Philadelphia took a shock two-goal lead before Miami fought back to cut the lead to one.
After the Union extended their lead to two goals once again thanks to Bruno Damiani, all hell broke loose at the Nu Stadium.
The stars of Inter Miami took over as the front three of Leo Messi, Luis Suarez, and German Berterame combined to see Miami score three unanswered goals to take a truly stunning lead on the brink of half-time.
While it looked like Miami would take the lead into the break after a truly bonkers opening 45 minutes, a hand-ball in stoppage time saw Philadelphia earn a penalty to equalize.

Up stepped Milan Iloski to dispatch the spot-kick, securing his first-half hat-trick and swing the momentum back in the Union's favor.
It is the highest-scoring first-half in the entire history of MLS. Could they go on to break the all-time single game scoring record in the second-half?
Folks, we still have 45 more minutes of this absolute chaos. How will they be able to sustain this carnage for another half!?
MLS at it's riveting best.
