Messi scores a wonder goal to help Inter Miami win.

In the early hours of August 17th, Chase Stadium witnessed a spectacular performance as Lionel Messi shone brightly, helping Inter Miami defeat Los Angeles Galaxy 3-1 in the 27th round of Major League Soccer (MLS).

Messi shone with one goal and one assist in the match against LA Galaxy.

After suffering a hamstring injury in the win against Necaxa, which forced Messi to miss two matches, Lionel Messi was on the bench this morning for the game against LA Galaxy.

Inter Miami ended the first half with one goal. Jordi Alba opened the scoring after a through ball that pierced through Sergio Busquets' entire defense.

In the second half, Messi came on, but before the 38-year-old superstar could even warm up, LA Galaxy unexpectedly dealt a blow. Joseph Paintsil made a powerful run, beating two defenders and unleashing a powerful shot that deflected off goalkeeper Oscar Ustari and into the net, leveling the score at 1-1.

As the game entered the 84th minute, the score was still 1-1, and Inter Miami needed a moment of brilliance. And the fans didn't have to wait long.

From a pass by his close friend Rodrigo De Paul, Messi executed his signature dribble, weaving past two opposing defenders before unleashing a powerful long-range shot with his left foot. The ball traveled with incredible speed, giving goalkeeper Micovic no chance to save it.

Just five minutes later, Messi continued to amaze the crowd. With an improvised backheel from outside the penalty area, he put Luis Suarez in a one-on-one situation with the goalkeeper. The Uruguayan striker made no mistake, easily sealing a 3-1 victory for the home team. A spectacular combination, reminiscent of their glorious days at Barcelona.

This victory not only brought three valuable points, but also affirmed the formidable strength of Inter Miami, a team that is increasingly dependent on the quartet of Messi, Suarez, Alba, and Busquets. With the arrival of De Paul, the pink-shirted team's playing style has become even more cohesive.

The victory against LA Galaxy was the perfect springboard for Inter Miami ahead of their challenging League Cup quarter-final match on the morning of August 21st. If they overcome UANL, they will advance to the semi-finals to face the winner of the Orlando City - Toluca match, bringing them closer to the championship.
