Lionel Messi continues to prove he’s one of the most lethal forwards in world football. The Argentine legend has set a new MLS record by scoring multiple goals in five consecutive matches, netting exactly two in each game.
As his coach and former teammate Javier Mascherano puts it: “There aren’t many words. It’s incredible what he keeps doing, not just breaking records every weekend, but now every three days.”
Inter Miami currently sits fifth in the Eastern Conference standings, just five points behind leaders Philadelphia Union, with three games in hand. Since returning from the Club World Cup break, the Herons have been in unstoppable form, earning a perfect run: nine points from nine.
