In God mode, whether in Barcelona, Qatar or Texas, the state of the ‘lone star’ saw only one star shine on the Frisco court: Lionel Messi returns to monopolize the spotlight wherever he stands and now, with the Leagues Cup as a stage, Inter Miami enjoyed the delights of having the ’10’ in its ranks with a gigantic performance and that arms its own ‘mess’.
Hand in hand with the Argentine, Inter Miami advanced to the Quarterfinals of the Leagues Cup after drawing 4-4 with FC Dallas in the regular time score and beating the Texans 5-3 in a penalty shootout.
Messi scored a goal from outside the box when he hit from left-footed first intention to Jordi Alba’s delayed pass just six minutes into the clock at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas. A partnership that bore great fruit before in the past at FC Barcelona and that, now, is latent in the whole of Florida.

Of course: the drama appeared in the play after, in the first instance, the goal was annulled for possible offside; however, referee César Arturo Ramos resorted to VAR to validate the play. In this way, Lionel Messi was consolidated as the great scorer of the Leagues Cup since he reached six goals scored in only four games, just his first commitments at Inter Miami.
