In his remarkable debut start for Inter Miami, Lionel Messi, the 36-year-old Argentine star, showcased his immense talent by scoring twice within the first 22 minutes and providing a brilliant assist to Robert Taylor in the second half.
Following his second goal, Messi pointed jubilantly at Inter Miami owner, David Beckham, in celebration. This outstanding performance follows his spectacular debut last week, where he sealed a last-minute victory with a stunning free-kick.
Robert Taylor spoke highly of Messi’s exceptional abilities, stating, “He possesses incredible ball control, making the right decisions with utmost precision. Most of the time, he effortlessly finds his teammates. He brings an immense level of quality to the team, being the best player in the world. Playing alongside him is truly a dream come true.”
Having only recently begun training with his new teammates after parting ways with Paris St-Germain, where he scored 32 goals in 75 games over a two-year period, Messi, a seven-time Ballon d’Or winner, chose to reject lucrative offers from other countries to continue his career in the United States. As the 2022 World Cup approaches, his arrival has already made a significant impact on Inter Miami.
