FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — Josef Martínez and Nick Lima traded goals early in the second half and Inter Miami and Austin FC played to a 1-1 draw on Saturday night, ending Inter Miami’s club-record seven-match losing streak.

Neither team scored until Martínez took passes from Benjamin Cremaschi and Robert Taylor two minutes into the second half and found the net for a fifth time this season for Inter Miami (5-13-1).

Lima, a defender, pulled Austin (7-8-5) even, scoring unassisted four minutes later. It was his first goal of the season.

Austin FC announced Friday the hiring of top Manchester City assistant manager Rodolfo Borrell as the Major League soccer club’s sporting director.

Austin was coming off two straight 3-0 victories. They were the first back-to-back clean sheets in club history. Austin is 2-10-2 in its last 14 road matches.
