Megastar Lionel Messi did what he was recruited to do at Inter Miami – led him to his first MLS title.
At the “Chase Stadium” in Fort Lauderdale, the team of the Argentine world champion beat the “Vancouver Whitecaps” of the German icon Thomas Müller 3:1. He has been a stumbling block for Messi so far.
The two had faced each other 10 times in their careers, with Muller having 7 wins and 2 of Messi’s coming in national team caps.
Or in official matches, the score was 7-1 in favor of the former Bayern ace, which included Barcelona’s thrashing of the Bavarians 2-8 in the Champions League and 0-1 after extra time in the 2014 World Cup final.
Tonight, Vancouver’s Ocampo scored an own goal in the 8th minute and teammate Ali Ahmed equalized in the 60th minute.
Rodrigo de Paul, who, like the Argentinian national team, was brought to “Inter Miami” to be a guard on the field for Messi, this time took advantage of his assistance and made it 2:1 in the 71st minute.
Leo passed to his compatriot Tadeo Allende, who in the 96th minute finished off the Canadians.
