(VIDEO) Messi’s hidden direction on Inter Miami’s winning goal that’s getting people talking

Lionel Messi and Inter Miami won another MLS game last night as they defeated DC United 1-0 at the Chase Stadium. The game was difficult for Inter Miami to manage since DC United was threatening a certain occasion while Inter Miami only had two shots on target. Messi was indirectly involved in the goal for Inter Miami as Leonardo Campana scored the winner in the 94th minute. Sergio Busquets assisted the Ecuadorian striker as he chipped it over the defense of DC United. Messi was not making a run, but he saw Busquets looking for options, and the Argentine star told Campana where to run to reach the pass. It worked perfectly, as Campana was unmarked and onside, and then the striker did the rest.

Messi played the entire match but had a difficult game. The Argentine completed the most dribbles in the match with five, but he also lost the most duels in the match with nine. This is now two consecutive MLS matches without Messi’s goal contribution. For Messi’s standards, this is the most difficult match for him since he joined the MLS.

Messi continues to be effective for Inter Miami when it comes to the stats this 2024 MLS season so far. The Argentine star has ten goals and nine assists in 10 MLS matches. Messi came back from a slight injury setback as he missed the 0-0 draw between Inter Miami and Orlando City this past week. Jordi Alba spoke after the 1-0 win against DC United to explain that Messi is motivated to win trophies at Inter Miami and will fight to win the MLS Cup this year. Alba said, “Leo is a winning person. He has the same winning mentality as when I first met him at Barcelona.”
