Lionel Messi once again proved his worth for Inter Miami with a dramatic injury-time goal against LA Galaxy, saving his team from defeat. In their second Major League Soccer fixture of the 2024 campaign, Messi's equalizer salvaged a crucial point for his side.

The 36-year-old Argentine superstar showcased his brilliance in the dying moments of the match, orchestrating a stunning passage of play that culminated in the crucial goal. Partnering with his former Barcelona teammate Jordi Alba, Messi exhibited his trademark skill and vision, weaving through LA Galaxy's defense before clinically slotting the ball past goalkeeper John McCarthy.

This scintillating strike by Messi nullified Dejan Joveljic’s opener for LA Galaxy, ensuring that Inter Miami left Dignity Health Sports Park in California with a share of the spoils. Notably, among the spectators was Inter Miami’s co-owner David Beckham, who, despite his ties to LA Galaxy, couldn't help but appreciate Messi's brilliance on the field.

Once again, Messi's invaluable contribution has underscored his importance to Inter Miami, highlighting his ability to influence games even at this stage of his illustrious career.
