Messi just scored a beautiful goal with a classic free kick in the 3-3 draw with Philadelphia Union on May 25. The 37-year-old Argentine star continued to play in the match against CF Montreal, showing that he is in excellent form and fitness after playing continuously since the end of March.
In the match against CF Montreal, Messi was the one who opened the scoring in the 27th minute with an extremely dangerous long-range shot from the edge of the penalty area, from a pass from Busquets. In the second half, after a tricky dribble in the penalty area, Messi made a pass for Suarez to open the scoring again after a period of silence, raising the score to 2-0 in the 68th minute. Having opened the scoring again, Suarez scored his second goal of the match just 3 minutes later to raise the score to 3-0 for Inter Miami.
In response, Suarez also created an opportunity for Messi to score the second goal of the match in the 87th minute with a classy pass. The efforts of the visiting team CF Montreal helped them to score 2 consolation goals thanks to Dante Sealy in the 74th minute and Victor Loturi in the 90+2 minute.

With his brace and assist, Messi has set a historic record for Inter Miami by becoming the first player for the club to reach the milestone of 50 combined goals and assists (specifically, scoring 29 goals and providing 21 assists). The Argentine legend achieved this feat in just 37 of his MLS matches.
The win, which featured Messi and Suarez, also helped Inter Miami get back on track for the MLS title, as they climbed to sixth place with 26 points in the Eastern Conference standings. Inter Miami still has one game in hand, and is now only seven points behind leaders Philadelphia Union and second-place FC Cincinnati, four points behind.
In the upcoming match, Inter Miami will continue to play at home against Columbus Crew at 6:30 a.m. on June 1. With Messi's current excellent form and the return of Suarez, fans of this team hope that the home team will continue to win and return to the MLS championship race.
After this match, Messi will return to the Argentina national team to compete in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in South America. Next, he and Inter Miami will enter the Club World Cup campaign with the opening match from June 15 (Vietnam time).
