Idan Toklomati’s hat trick powered Charlotte FC over 10-man Inter Miami 3-0 on Saturday as the hosts stretched their MLS win streak to a record-tying nine games.
The 21-year-old Israeli striker scored in the 34th and 47th minutes and netted his third goal on a penalty kick in the 84th minute as Charlotte matched the non-shootout era MLS record win streak set by Seattle in 2018.
Toklomati, who has 11 goals on the season, worked his magic while Miami went down to 10 men after Argentine defender Tomas Aviles was shown a red card in the 79th minute.
It was Inter Miami’s first match without suspended striker Luis Suarez, an Uruguayan standout for Liverpool and Barcelona before joining the MLS side.
