Lionel Messi scores twice for Inter Miami in 3-1 win vs. LAFC

Lionel Messi scored twice for Inter Miami in their 3-1 win against LAFC.

Messi had two goals in the match and Inter Miami qualified to the semi finals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup. LAFC took an early 1-0 lead, 2-1 on aggregate but Messi would score two goals.

The 37 year old scored a free kick which was disallowed as the referee had not whistled for the free kick to be taken. Moments later, Messi would receive the ball on the edge of the penalty area and his effort would go into the side of the goal to draw Inter Miami level.

Inter Miami would take the 2-1 lead in the match and the score would be 2-2 on aggregate. Javier Mascherano’s team would need one more goal to qualify and they were awarded a penalty kick.

A repeat of the 2022 World Cup final, it was Lionel Messi against Hugo Lloris. Messi would go to his right and Lloris would stay in the middle as Messi would score his second goal of the match.
