Watch Inter Miami ‘turn into prime Barcelona’ as Lionel Messi scores after outrageous build-up play including ‘mad’ pass
FANS Have gone wild after Lionel Messi scored for Inter Miami after the team put together a brilliant build-up passage of play.
The Argentine star continued to impress at his new club as he netted his first goal in the MLS.
Messi, 36, has now managed 11 goals in his first seven appearances for the US outfit.
He had only featured in the Leagues Cup and the US Open Cup before making his debut in the MLS.
Inter Miami were facing New York Red Bulls and had taken the lead in the 37th minute through Diego Gomez.
But it was in the 89th minute that Inter Miami showed their new talent with former Barcelona stars such as Messi, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets all linking up together.
Busquets played an ariel ball into the box which was then outrageously bicycle-kicked by Alba to Messi.
The forward then made a pass through two defenders to the rushing Benja Cremaschi who then returned the ball to Messi for an open goal tap-in.
