Lionel Messi extends scoring streak with 8th goal since Inter Miami debut, securing a 4-0 victory against Charlotte FC in Leagues Cup quarterfinal match… Soccer LeaguesCup
It was a quiet night by Messi’s standards, scoring only on a late one-timer from Leonardo Campana’s cross after he had found the net twice in each of his first three starts.
With a win in either the semifinals or the third-place match, the Herons will qualify for next year’s CONCACAF Champions Cup, which would be the club’s first continental competition. Messi also has three assists while helping Miami outscore its opponents 17-6 in the tournament. But it was his teammates who created the early separation in Friday’s match.
