Miami finished sixth among the 14 teams in Major League Soccer’s Eastern Conference with 14 wins, 14 losses and six ties. In the first round of the playoffs, the team lost to New York 3-0.
Neville was hired ahead of the 2021 season after three years coaching the England women’s team. Miami missed the playoffs in its first season after finishing with 12 wins, 17 losses and five ties.
