Just an absolutely grotesque assist from Lionel Messi there. My word, what an assist. Unreal pass. Jordi Alba with a tidy finish, too, but that's all Leo. Man.

Two in two minutes for Miami -- you just cannot do this if you're RBNY. They started so brilliantly, but man, two terribly defended goals conceded in quick succession.

Julian Hall's skillset is so unique. Him getting the start here says a lot about the belief in his talents from RBNY. He's been lively, some good moments so far. Forward turned 17 in March.

Inter Miami go up 3-1 over RBNY on the verge of halftime, and once again, it's some truly disastrous defending from the hosts. All three goals conceded so far are self-inflicted errors. Just not good enough.

Sergio Busquets delivers a 40 yard assist to Messi, and it's 4-1. Stunning goal from Messi. What a night for him. Three goal contributions for the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner so far.

Lionel Messi now has six braces in his last seven matches. What an unreal run of form.

Inter Miami Player Ratings from this evening I've been writing these for roughly two years now. I don't know if I have ever given out a 10 for anyone on this South Beach roster Tonight? That changed What an otherworldly performance from Messi GOAL USA goal.com/en-us/lists/in…

Been trying to figure out how to describe tonight’s El Trafico. Lot of ways to characterize it — but I think the best way to look at the rivalry is it’s just pure entertainment. It’s the match that can take an avg. soccer fan and make them an MLS fan. Always delivers.

Across sports, All-Star Games have lost their luster. Fans no longer have to wait to see big stars; they're on TV every night as highlights flood your feeds. Ahead of the #MLS All-Star Game, how do you fix it? Can MLS succeed where other sports haven't? goal.com/en-us/lists/ar…

Working on an all-time Best XI for the MLS All-Stars, and it is absolutely criminal that Darlington Nagbe is only a three-time selection. Just sitting here, really frustrated at that fact lol. Damn.

Happy All-Star week, everyone! Took a stroll down memory lane going over the most iconic MLS ASG moments -- dating back to the 90s. From intriguing formats to Landon Donovan's, erm, hair choice, Pep Guardiola's 2014 meltdown and more. GOAL USA goal.com/en-us/lists/pe…

This is the talking point now, isn't it. What a turnaround.

Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba will NOT be playing in the MLS All-Star Game tonight. Alba did not show up for the MLS Skills Challenge on Tuesday, when originally named to the roster for it. MLS has updated the final ASG roster, and neither are on it. mlssoccer.com/allstar/2025/n…
