Lionel Messi scored twice for Inter Miami in their 3-1 win against Orlando to make the Leagues Cup final.

Inter Miami are back in the Leagues Cup final, having qualified after initially trailing by a goal. With the score at 0-0, the ball fell to Marco Pašalić of Orlando inside the penalty area and he would score the first goal of the game.

With Orlando leading 1-0, Inter Miami were awarded a penalty kick and it was Messi who would take it. The Orlando goalkeeper Gallese would guess the right way and go to his left side but Messi would score with his well placed penalty to draw Inter Miami level.

At 1-1, the Lionel Messi show would continue. The Argentine would dribble into the Orlando penalty area and play a one-two with Jordi Alba and Messi would score his second goal of the match to give Inter Miami the 2-1 lead.

Lionel Messi’s team would score moments later. Segovia would dribble inside the penalty area, play a pass to Suarez who would pass it back to Segovia and he would chip the goalkeeper for Inter Miami’s third goal.

Aarón Anselmino has joined Borussia Dortmund on loan.

Anselmino will be playing with Borussia Dortmund this season. The club announced that the 20 year old defender has joined them on a season long loan deal from Chelsea.

The Argentine joins then after Dortmund had several injuries to their team. Lars Ricken, the club’s sporting director, spoke on their website about Anselmino joining them. Here is what he had to say:

“Due to the injuries sustained by Emre Can, Nico Schlotterbeck and Niklas Süle, we have been forced to make additions to our central defence. Aaron Anselmino has already gained top-flight experience in his home country and has great potential. It is not without reason that Chelsea signed him on an extremely long-term contract last summer.

“We were already monitoring Aaron during his time at Boca Juniors. He represents a very good solution in our current situation. He is a talented player who has already proven his quality at a young age in very emotional stadiums. We will now integrate him quickly because we need him immediately and are looking forward to seeing Aaron in the Black & Yellow shirt this season.”
