Messi Scores Two Unique Goals, Inter Miami Defeats Nashville in MLS

Lionel Messi demonstrated his class as Inter Miami faced Nashville in week 23 of MLS 2025 at Chase Stadium — the home team secured a 2-1 victory.

The Argentine star opened the scoring in the 17th minute with an unusual free kick execution — instead of lifting the ball, Messi chose to shoot along the ground past the wall and into the left corner of the goal.

Nashville managed to equalize through Hany Mukhtar, but Lionel Messi restored Inter Miami’s lead in the 62nd minute — capitalizing on a defensive error to score his second goal.
