Messi is on a roll after securing another victory against the Dallas football club. Till now, Messi has led Miami’s team in four games and won all of them. Therefore, he made everyone be aware of his presence in the American league.
After being seminal in all four games of Inter Miami, Messi has proven his worth and transformed the team into a world-class footballing giant in a short while.
After scoring two goals, Messi extended the game to a penalty shootout situation. Where the men in pink ‘decimated’ the Dallas team and won with a 5-3 edge. The spectators said that the sight was something out of a sports drama.
The sudden turn of events in the match surprised everyone. Even the coach of FC Dallas, Nico Estevez, was surprised. He even said, “I thought we had it…We put them in a really difficult position in this game.”
Messi Helped The Team To Win:
But Messi was the grace that brought the team away from the brink of defeat. In the 85th minute into the game, Messi scored an equalizer, which carried the game into the penalty shootout situation.
Things seemed bleak for the boys in pink as they struggled throughout the first half. However, things took a surprising turn as they equalized the score with the help of a seven-time Ballon d’Or winner.
However, this match was also the first match where the Inter Miami team was running behind the goals ever since Messi arrived on the scene.
Therefore, could this be the first sign that American teams are slowly getting used to Messi’s game and are trying to move past it?
Nonetheless, whatever may be the reason, as of now, Messi is dominating the American League.
Tata Martino, Miami’s coach, gave a statement in the postgame interview saying, “It was a demonstration of character because it’s difficult to come back in a game twice,” when asked about the team’s performance.
