In a display of unparalleled skill, Lionel Messi has set a new MLS record, becoming the fastest player to reach 70 goal contributions. This milestone was achieved during the Inter Miami versus D.C. United game on September 20th. Messi provided an assist to Tomás Allende and scored a goal himself, taking his total contributions to 72. Messi has been instrumental in Miami’s crucial matches. He reached the 70-goal involvement mark in a mere 46 games, breaking Carlos Vela’s record of 55. The Argentinian superstar has now accumulated 72 goal involvements across 47 matches. His pass to Allende was a notable play during the game. Messi has shouldered the responsibility of leading the attack after returning from international duty, particularly with Luis Suárez’s absence. The team is striving to secure a playoff spot. The recent performance includes a loss to Charlotte FC and a victory against Seattle Sounders.
