Messi’s 900th Goal Overshadowed by Inter Miami’s Champions Cup Exit
Lionel Messi became only the second male player to score 900 official career goals. He reached the mark in his 1,142nd appearance, faster than his rival Cristiano Ronaldo. Messi opened the scoring in the 7th minute with a trademark left-foot strike after a precise Reguilón pass. Inter Miami dominated early but could not add a second. Nashville SC’s persistence paid off in the 74th minute when a blocked shot looped in off Miami’s keeper. The visitors’ away goal sealed a 1-1 draw and saw them advance on the away goals rule. Despite late pressure, Inter Miami could not find a winner. The result ends their hopes of continental glory this season.
