Goal from Lionel Messi! This was his first goal of 2024 against Al Hilal
Lionel Messi is finally back into scoring goals for Inter Miami!
Inter Miami is playing a real great game today against Al Hilal, in Saudi Arabia. David Beckham's team came out with the best eleven they had available, that is: Drake Callender; DeAndre Yedlin, Tomás Avilés, Serhiy Kryvtsov, Noah Allen, Jordi Alba; Julian Gressel, Sergio Busquets, David Ruiz; Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez.
The match did not start in the best way for the club coached by Gerardo Tata Martino, as after just 13 minutes they were already losing 2-0, after goals from Aleksandar Mitrovic and Abdullah Al-Hamdan. Thus, it seemed that it was going to be a walk in the park for Al Hilal, but nothing could be further from the truth!
Luis Suarez scored his first goal in an Inter Miami shirt before halftime, but it was of little use, as Al Hilal scored the 3-1 score shortly after. At the beginning of the second half, the moment that the entire stadium was waiting for arrived, Lionel Messi's goal!
Lionel Messi's goal!
After reviewing the VAR, the referee awarded a penalty to Inter Miami, a penalty that Lionel Messi did not miss! and thus the Argentine scored his first goal in all of 2024. Furthermore, as if that were not enough, Lionel Messi assisted the third goal a few minutes later, thus the game was tied 3-3.
