Messi s 90 minutes: Strength proves that the king of football is still the same

In the rain battle against Montreal at home, Miami International took place in just 2 minutes of the game, a dramatic scene was staged: Messi made a mistake in passing the return pass and was intercepted by Ou's lightning, and a push shot instantly ignited the visiting team's hope.

But the real storm is just beginning to brew at this moment. In the 33rd minute, Messi passed the ball lightly at the front of the penalty area. After receiving the ball, Allende hit a world wave and hit a dead corner, and tied the score.

Seven minutes later, he personally took over the game: he changed directions in the middle and shook two defensive players, calmly pushed and shot over the top of the penalty area.

This is just the overture.

In the 60th minute of the second half, Messi's scalpel penetrated the defense line directly, and Trasco understood and scored a single goal.

Two minutes later, a more shocking scene came: the frontcourt counterattacked the ball, and Messi passed three people in a row, accurately pushing the far corner in the double-team of four people.

67 touches, 5 key passes, and 6 passes and 5 successes - at the age of 37, he contributed 2 goals and 1 assist in a single game, and his score soared to 9.7 after the game. Amid the boiling shouts of the court, a detail was captured by the camera: when Suarez missed the opportunity, Messi smiled and slapped his old friend's back, while Busquets waved his hand in the distance to direct the defense line.

The tacit understanding of former Barcelona meritorious deeds is becoming the password for Miami's counterattack.

Although the defense line frequently appeared at the beginning of the season - the embarrassing data of 42 goals conceded in 34 rounds had heartbreaking for fans - they withstood their opponents' counterattack in this game and firmly locked their possession rate at 60%. Behind the victory, the locker room is undercurrent.

Just 24 hours before the game, Argentine media were still hotly discussing the suspense of Messi's contract renewal: the contract has not been signed for only half a year, and rumors of Barcelona's return are rampant.

But Alba's speech was firm: "He can't go anywhere else!"

Miami International's sincerity can be seen with the naked eye: it promised to give an additional 10 days of national team training before the 2026 World Cup, and even a special plane equipped with a physiotherapist.

The shadow of the Club World Cup 0-4 defeat to Paris has not yet dissipated, but Messi responded with this solo show.

When he dribbled the ball, the Montreal defender's horrified eyes said everything - even in the American League, the King of Football is still the insurmountable mountain. In the stands, the tactical board held by the USC League officials was marked with the words "Ankara Messi", the legendary code name originated from the 2007 Cup of Kings, and is still shining in the Miami night sky in 2025. In the locker room, Messi was checking the video of his son's game on his phone while the staff handed over the ice bag.

The stability of off-field life may be the key to his rejection of European giants.

As the scene captured by the reporter on the sidelines: After losing to Orlando City, Messi patiently signed the little fans in the parking lot, but the rain soaked the jersey but his smile remained unchanged.

At this moment, Miami International is at the top of the Eastern Conference.

When fans sang "GOAT", Messi looked up at the scoreboard - behind the 4:1 score is the latest footnote to his 858 career goals.

No shouting, no passionate kneeling, only the jersey wipes the rain.

belongs to his legend and never needs proof of noise.
