The entire Europe has seen Lionel Messi scoring clutch goals for Barcelona over the years in his club career. On Sunday, even Major League Soccer saw the Argentine maestro rising to the occasion and scoring a much-needed equaliser for the club from a free-kick.
Messi, known for scoring some of the most spectacular free-kicks in his distinguished football career, put the ball past the FC Dallas goalkeeper late in the game, helping his team equalise 4-4 and pushing the Leagues Cup Round of 16 match into the penalty shootout.
Messi, who had opened the scoring for Inter Miami in the 6th minute, was involved in a goal-fest that saw both teams score 4 goals each.
While Messi would've liked to win the match for his side in normal time with a hat-trick, such a result couldn't become a reality.
