Messi's Magic Lifts Inter Miami Over Nashville in Epic MLS Clash
Wow—what a night it was at Chase Stadium as Lionel Messi once again reminded the world why he’s still the king of football. In a highly anticipated MLS showdown between Inter Miami and Nashville SC, Messi lit up the pitch with a stunning free kick goal that gave Inter Miami the breakthrough they needed. Honestly, it felt like déjà vu. We've seen him do this for years, but it never gets old.
It was about 7:45 p.m. ET when the action kicked off, and the energy in the stadium was absolutely electric. Fans packed in, especially early arrivals trying to snag those exclusive Publix x Inter Miami CF T-shirts. But once the whistle blew, everyone’s eyes were glued to the pitch. And within moments, the atmosphere hit another level—Messi stepped up for a free kick just outside the box, and in classic Messi fashion, he curved the ball beautifully into the top corner. It was unstoppable. The crowd erupted. Just like that, Inter Miami was on the board.
This wasn’t just any goal. It came in a pivotal match against a very strong Nashville side that had been unbeaten in 12 regular season games. Inter Miami, though, came in with momentum of their own, riding a five-match unbeaten streak. And Messi? He came in fresh off a historic night against the New England Revolution, where he became the first player in MLS history to score multiple goals in four consecutive regular season games.

And get this—after his free kick against Nashville, Messi now has 15 goals this season. He’s not just leading the team; he’s carrying them, inspiring them. He’s the reason the stands are full, the jerseys are flying off shelves, and the fans keep believing.
Nashville wasn’t an easy opponent. They’ve got Sam Surridge leading their scoring charts and Hany Mukhtar feeding him with assists. But even with all that firepower, they struggled to find rhythm against a Miami squad that’s locked in—focused, aggressive, and led by a legend. And this wasn’t just about one player. The whole attacking unit stepped up. With Luis Suárez, Allende, Segovia, and others firing alongside Messi, Miami’s offense is one of the deadliest in the league.
Now let’s talk head-to-head history. This was the 15th meeting between the two clubs, and with this result, Inter Miami continues to dominate the rivalry. They're unbeaten in their last seven matchups against Nashville (5 wins, 2 draws), and they’re looking stronger than ever.
Honestly, whether you're a die-hard fan or just tuning in to catch a glimpse of Messi’s brilliance, this was a game to remember. Inter Miami is not just playing for wins—they're playing with style, confidence, and a sense of purpose. And as long as Messi is on that pitch, you can expect the magic to keep flowing.
What a time to be an Inter Miami supporter.
