1-1 was the final score both teams, since there was no overtime, were led to the… Russian roulette of the penalty shootout. Inter Miami and Nashville players were pretty spot on and the goalkeeper proved fatal for Antetokounmpo’s team Panicas his penalty deflected off Callender.
Messi emerged as the tournament’s top scorer with 10 goals in 7 matches and, naturally, he was named MVP of the competition, knowing the apotheosis of his teammates and the friends of Inter Miami.

At the same time, the Argentine star managed to achieve another personal distinction, as in the early hours he reached 44 titles in his great career, after the World Cup with the National Team last December and what he achieved in Barcelona and Paris, with the jerseys of Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. Thus he surpassed his former Blaugrana team-mate, Dani Alves, who has 43 trophies.
