Lionel Messi showcased his extraordinary talent once again, leading Inter Miami to a decisive 4-0 victory over Cincinnati early Monday, securing the team's first-ever spot in the Eastern Conference final of Major League Soccer.
Messi scored one goal and provided three assists, with Tadeo Allende netting two goals and Mateo Silvetti contributing the fourth, as Miami, ranked third, prepares to face New York City in a crucial match this Saturday.
New York City advanced by eliminating conference leaders Philadelphia, thanks to a goal from Maxi Morales, setting the stage for an anticipated clash with Messi and his teammates.
Historic Milestones for Messi
Messi's performance in Cincinnati was significant; at age 38, he matched the all-time record of Hungarian legend Ferenc Puskás with 404 career assists, while also closing in on his 900th career goal, needing just four more.
The "Pulga" has now reached 1,300 goal contributions in 1,135 matches, continuing to break records despite his age. He has scored 46 goals this season, making him the top scorer in Major League Soccer, and has contributed to 23 goals in the last 10 matches, leading the playoffs with six goals.
In the Western Conference, the Vancouver Whitecaps await the winner of the match between San Diego, the current leaders, and Minnesota United.
