Messi scores two spectacular goals as Inter Miami defeat Nashville

Lionel Messi demonstrated his class again as he led Inter Miami to a 2-1 victory over Nashville in the MLS 2025 match at Chase Stadium.

La Pulga opened the scoring for the hosts in the 17th minute — through an unusual free kick execution from the right side of the penalty box with a flat shot that penetrated the wall.

Nashville managed to equalize through Hany Mukhtar’s goal, but Lionel Messi secured Inter Miami’s victory — by capitalizing on a defensive error in the 62nd minute.
