Lionel Messi returned from injury and scored a brilliant goal to give Inter Miami the lead against LA Galaxy.
Lionel Messi made a triumphant return to the pitch after missing two games due to injury, scoring Inter Miami’s second goal to give his team the lead over LA Galaxy.
Days before the match, Javier Mascherano said Messi was feeling well and would start on the bench. With the game 1-0 in Inter Miami’s favor thanks to a goal from Jordi Alba, the Argentine made his return in the second half with 45 minutes remaining.
At the 59th minute, LA Galaxy equalized following a brilliant play from Joseph Paintsil, leveling the score. But there was still plenty of time for Messi to shine as he usually does.
Receiving a pass from his compatriot Rodrigo De Paul, Messi shrugged off two defenders before unleashing a powerful strike from outside the box, leaving goalkeeper Novak Micovic with no chance.
