Messi Makes Magic in Miami, Shatters MLS Records

by | May 6, 2024

Miami, FL – May 5, 2024 – Lionel Messi defied belief once again, putting on a masterclass performance for Inter Miami against the New York Red Bulls on Saturday. The Argentine maestro not only led his team to a convincing 6-2 victory, but he also rewrote the MLS record books in the process.

Messi orchestrated Miami’s attack with an unparalleled display of playmaking, becoming the first player in MLS history to record five assists in a single game. He wasn’t done there, adding a goal of his own to his tally for a remarkable six-goal contribution (one goal and five assists). This record-breaking performance marks the most by any player in a single MLS match.

“I don’t think we will ever see anything like that again,” said Inter Miami head coach Gerardo “Tata” Martino, echoing the sentiment of many after witnessing Messi’s magic.

This isn’t the first time Messi has dominated headlines in MLS. Just last week, he set two other impressive records: scoring and assisting in six consecutive league matches and reaching 10 goals in just eight games (tied with teammate Luis Suarez). He also leads the league with a staggering 12 assists for the season.

Messi’s arrival in Major League Soccer has injected excitement into the league, and his performances are proving that age is just a number for the legendary footballer. Inter Miami fans are undoubtedly thrilled to have him leading their charge, and with Messi at the helm, anything seems possible for the Florida side.pen_sparktunesharemore_vert
