Montreal, July 6 (V7N) – Lionel Messi delivered a stellar performance to guide Inter Miami to a much-needed 4-1 victory over CF Montréal in Major League Soccer (MLS), marking the club’s first win in over a month. The Argentine star scored twice and assisted another, reaffirming his pivotal role in Miami’s attack.

The match, held in Montréal, began unfavorably for the visitors. In just the second minute, a misplaced pass from Messi was intercepted, allowing Prince Osei Owusu to score and give the Canadian hosts an early lead.

However, Inter Miami quickly regrouped. In the 33rd minute, Messi set up Tadeo Allende for the equalizer. Seven minutes later, Messi found the net himself, completing a clinical finish to turn the match in Miami’s favor by halftime.

In the second half, Inter Miami maintained control, with Messi continuing to influence the game. The team added two more goals to seal the 4-1 win, though the scorers of the final goals were not detailed in the immediate match report.

The victory breaks Miami’s winless streak and highlights Messi’s continued dominance in the MLS, as he continues to lead by example with direct involvement in most of the team’s scoring opportunities.

With this win, Inter Miami strengthens its position in the Eastern Conference standings, and fans will be hopeful the club can build momentum heading into the next stretch of the season.
