Even without hitting his top form, Lionel Messi made a significant impact by scoring a crucial goal against LA Galaxy. Inter Miami’s star performance not only highlights his skill but also nudges him closer to securing another prestigious MLS award.
Inter Miami successfully halted a potential losing streak with a crucial victory over the LA Galaxy, thanks in large part to the impactful return of Lionel Messi. Coming off the bench, the Argentine star made an immediate impact by netting a pivotal goal despite not being in top form. This performance puts him on the brink of securing a prestigious MLS award for the first time in his storied career.
With his goal against LA Galaxy, Lionel Messi has emerged as the current top scorer in the MLS, amassing 19 goals in just 19 appearances for Inter Miami. This achievement sees him surpass competitors like Sam Surridge of Nashville SC, who stands at 18 goals, and Evander of FC Cincinnati, who has tallied 16. If he continues at this impressive scoring rate, he is poised to claim the MLS Golden Boot by the season’s end, marking another milestone in his illustrious career.
Since joining MLS, the Inter Miami star has maintained his status as a prolific scorer. In a challenging 2023, he managed to play only six games, netting one goal. However, he made a remarkable comeback in 2024, scoring 20 goals in 19 matches. Despite his impressive performance, the MLS Golden Boot scorer award eluded him Christian Benteke outdid him with 23 goals.
Lionel Messi, though yet to claim the MLS top scorer title, boasts an impressive record with six European Golden Boot victories during his tenure at FC Barcelona. This accomplishment establishes him as the award’s most decorated recipient, surpassing his longtime rival Cristiano Ronaldo, who has secured the accolade on four occasions.
Cristiano Ronaldo reaches milestone with Al Nassr that Lionel Messi has yet to achieve with Inter Miami
Cristiano Ronaldo fell short of becoming maximum the European Golden Boot winner, yet the Portuguese icon has firmly cemented his status as the top scorer in the Saudi Pro League. As the star forward for Al Nassr, Ronaldo showcased his remarkable goal-scoring abilities by capturing the league’s Golden Boot for two consecutive seasons.
Al Nassr star netted an impressive 35 goals during the 2023-24 campaign, followed by another stellar performance with 25 goals in the 2024-25 season. In contrast, Lionel Messi has yet to win the MLS Golden Boot with Inter Miami, highlighting Ronaldo’s enduring scoring prowess on the global stage.
