Messi Makes MLS History in Inter Miami vs New England Showdown
Lionel Messi’s brace at Gillette Stadium led Inter Miami CF to a 2-1 win over the New England Revolution, becoming the first player in MLS history to score multiple goals in four straight regular-season games—all of which were victories. The Argentine capitalized on a defensive error for his opener in the 28th minute, then doubled Miami’s lead just before halftime with a brilliant finish from a perfectly weighted Sergio Busquets through ball.
That victory marked Miami’s second in as many games since exiting the Club World Cup and lifted Javier Mascherano’s side back toward playoff contention. For New England, the loss extends their winless run to four games (0-3-1), while Messi’s two-goal streak underscores his relentless impact in the league.
