Griezmann scores, Lewandowski quiet against Messi-less Miami as new stars debut in MLS

The article covers the MLS return from the World Cup break, focusing on the debuts of two marquee summer signings: Antoine Griezmann for Orlando City and Robert Lewandowski for the Chicago Fire. Griezmann scored his first MLS goal and had a strong performance in Orlando's 4-0 win over San Jose, also reaching his 300th career club goal. In contrast, Lewandowski struggled in Chicago's 3-2 loss to Inter Miami, who were missing Lionel Messi and Rodrigo De Paul but featured Luis Suárez scoring twice. A 20-year-old homegrown player, Preston Plambeck, scored the winning goal for Miami. The article highlights the adjustment period for European stars in MLS and the league's unpredictability.
