Inter Miami CF delivered a spectacular comeback against Nashville SC, clinching victory with a dominant performance led by Lionel Messi's heroics. Despite conceding early, with the Miami defense faltering, Messi swiftly equalized in the 11th minute before providing a brilliant assist to Sergio Busquets just before halftime.
The Argentine maestro sealed the win with a late penalty in the 81st minute, marking his seventh goal of the MLS season. However, the triumph was overshadowed by Diego Gomez's unfortunate injury, as the Paraguayan sensation was stretchered off in tears after colliding with Nashville goalkeeper Elliot Panico.
Gomez's status remains uncertain, raising concerns for both Miami and Paraguay ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Meanwhile, Inter Miami gears up to face the New England Revolution in their upcoming clash, aiming to maintain their momentum atop the Eastern Conference standings.
Despite Nashville's relentless efforts, they continue to struggle against Messi, failing to secure a victory in their five encounters against him since his arrival in 2023.
