Messi's team has suffered three consecutive defeats recently, including two legs of the CONCACAF Champions Cup semi-final against Vancouver (0-2 and 1-3), and a painful comeback loss to FC Dallas with a score of 3-4 despite leading 3-1. That put a lot of pressure on coach Javier Mascherano.
Meanwhile, Messi has not directly scored or assisted in any recent matches. His close friend Suarez has gone 9 matches without scoring, contributing to Inter Miami's recent crisis.
Inter Miami's determination to find inspiration was evident right from the opening whistle against New York RB. In the 9th minute, Fafa Picault broke the deadlock with a close-range finish after a perfectly placed pass from Marcelo Weigandt. In the 30th minute, defender Marcelo doubled the lead himself with a decisive shot.
Nine minutes later, Suarez's killer instinct was rekindled with a finish that increased the score to 3-0 before the visitors scored a goal before the break.
In the second half, Inter Miami's dominating performance continued. In the 67th minute, after a clever one-two with Telasco Segovia, Messi unleashed a powerful left-footed shot, sealing a 4-1 win and ending a four-game scoreless streak in MLS.
This precious goal not only relieved the pressure on the 36-year-old star, but also helped David Beckham's team rise to fourth in the Eastern Conference standings, and at the same time lifted their spirits after three consecutive defeats.
