Lionel Messi Dazzles with Three Assists as Inter Miami Cruises Past New England Revolution
Lionel Messi was in spectacular form, delivering three assists to propel Inter Miami to a commanding 4-1 victory over the New England Revolution. The win solidifies Miami’s hold on third place in the Eastern Conference as the MLS regular season nears its conclusion.
The match at a rain-soaked Chase Stadium saw the home side shake off an early scare from the Revolution before taking complete control. Messi was the orchestrator, setting up the opening goal for Tadeo Allende in the 31st minute and providing the crucial pass for Jordi Alba to score just before halftime, making it 2-0.
After a brief consolation goal from New England’s Dor David Turgeman in the second half, Messi immediately responded with another sublime long ball to assist Allende again, restoring the two-goal cushion. Alba soon added a fourth to cap off the dominant performance.
With this performance, Messi now has 17 assists for the season, placing him second in the MLS assist charts, and remains the league’s top scorer with 24 goals. The victory ends a two-game winless streak for Inter Miami and provides ideal momentum ahead of the upcoming playoffs. The team will finish the regular season against Nashville SC, while the defeated Revolution, already eliminated from postseason contention, will host Chicago Fire.
