Messi Scores His 19th MLS Goal as Inter Miami Draws 2-2 with Nashville

Messi scored twice, but Nashville answered with an early goal and an own goal to preserve a draw in a key Eastern Conference matchup.

  • On Saturday, Inter Miami played first-place Nashville to a 2-2 draw in their Eastern Conference clash. Lionel Messi scored his 19th MLS goal, but Sam Surridge equalized in stoppage time.
  • Nashville struck four minutes into the match when Surridge finished a pass from Andy Najar. An own goal by defender Reed Baker-Whiting tied the score in the 19th minute.
  • Messi fired Inter Miami into a 2-1 lead on 62 minutes with a left-footed shot into the bottom corner. He had previously struck the crossbar in the 50th minute and hit the post in the 78th minute.
  • The result leaves Inter Miami nine points adrift of Nashville in the Eastern Conference standings. With nine regular season games remaining, the draw keeps the MLS-leaders nine points ahead of second-place Miami.
  • Nashville remained unbeaten in four meetings against Miami this season, extending dominance after a 4-1 victory in August and an earlier Concacaf Champions Cup elimination of the club.
