The Argentine star needed 6 minutes to open the scoring against Dallas and score his sixth goal for his new team, which dreams of the Leagues Cup.
Lionel Messi scored 1-0 Inter Miami ante Dallas for the round of 16 Leagues Cup, a competition that has the Argentine star shining. It took Leo 6 minutes for his first shot to inflate the net of the rival goalkeeper, the Dutchman Maarten Paes.
With the Selectioncon Barcelona y PSG, Messi scored hundreds of those goals in which he kicks from outside the area and puts it in a corner. Now it happened for the first time in the United States, and it meant the sixth goal in four games for Leo, who continues to show his magic on American soil.
It was the first shot on goal for Leo and his entire team, who was having a hard time on his visit to Dallas, Messi’s debut away from home. Led by former Independiente Alan Velasco, the locals pressed against Drake Callender’s goal, who saved “the herons” with a slap when the score was 0-0.
The old connection between Messi and Jordi Alba is beginning to give results: Leo’s goal came after a precise pass, dragging and with just the right speed from his former teammate in Barcelona. The effort of Facundo Quignón, the former San Lorenzo, Newell’s and Lanús, who plays in Dallas, was not enough and Leo’s shot ended up making it 1-0 for those led by Tata Martino.
Of course, the goal came with suspense. The assistant raised his flag while Messi was preparing to celebrate his goal: he saw the advanced position of the Venezuelan Josef Martínez, who appeared in the middle of the ball’s journey towards the goal.
However, Martínez’s reaction was not to intervene in the action and he ran on time, which prompted the Mexican referee César Arturo Ramos Palazuelo to go review the play and validate the goal, which began the captain’s celebration Argentinian.
A while later, Quignón had his revenge when he made it 1-1 for Dallas with a precise shot that hit the far post.
