Messi brace lifts Miami as Mueller scores winner for Whitecaps versus Orlando in MLS
Gulf Today
|October 13, 2025
Lionel Messi scored twice to spark Inter Miami to a 4-0 victory over Atlanta United, seizing the lead in Major League Soccer's scoring table in a key victory for the Florida club.
-
The Argentine superstar scored his 25th and 26th goals of the season, moving ahead of Los Angeles FC’s Denis Bouanga in the race for the Golden Boot after starting the day tied with the Gabon international on 24 goals.
Miami, already assured of an MLS Cup playoff berth, continued their push for better playoff position.
They pulled level with Cincinnati on 62 points in the Eastern Conference, four points behind leaders Philadelphia, who have clinched the Supporters Shield as the team with the best regular season record in the league.
Messi’s 39th-minute strike to open the scoring was a beauty.
Baltasar Rodriguez robbed an Atlanta defender and found Messi just outside the box.
Messi strode forward and curled a left-footed shot around Pedro Amador and out of the reach of Atlanta goalkeeper Jayden Hibbert in the upper left corner of the net.
