In his club Inter Miami's 4-1 win over New England Revolution on Saturday (local time), the Argentine scored a brace (32', 68') and set up the two goals from Benjamin Cremaschi (83') and Luis Suárez (89'). before. The 36-year-old has nine goals and seven assists in seven appearances this season - according to Inter, a record in league history.

Messi is also the first player in MLS history to be involved in at least two goals in five consecutive games. Inter Miami, which clearly missed the play-offs last year when Messi, but also Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba only moved to the USA during the season, is at the top of the Eastern Conference with 21 points from eleven games. 65.612 fans came to the game at New England, giving the hosts a record attendance at Foxborough Stadium.
