Martino guided Miami to the best regular season in MLS history but were stunned in the first round of the playoffs.

While Lionel Messi and the rest of Major League Soccer were away for the November international break, a surprise report from Inter Miami CF shook up the league on Tuesday. Inter Miami head coach Gerardo "Tata" Martino is leaving his position with the club effective immediately, according to MLS insider Tom Bogert.

Fireworks shot out from the rafters of Inter Miami’s Chase Stadium on Saturday night, but there was nothing for the home team to celebrate. When the final whistle blew in Fort Lauderdale, Inter Miami had been beaten 3-2 by Atlanta United and eliminated from the MLS playoffs.
