Lionel Messi and Inter Miami are hoping to keep their hot streak going in MLS in a huge Wednesday night clash with FC Cincinnati.
Miami may have been outmatched by mighty Paris Saint-Germain at the Club World Cup, but in MLS, the team has won five in a row thanks in no small part to its iconic captain. Messi set an MLS record on Saturday, registering his fifth consecutive league match with two or more goals. Over that stretch, Messi has 10 goals and five assists, arguably his best run of form since coming to MLS in 2023.
It won’t be easy to keep that run going at TQL Stadium, where FC Cincinnati clobbered Miami 6-1 just over one year ago. Cincinnati leads Miami by four points in the MLS standings, though Messi and Co. have three games in hand due to their Club World Cup obligations.
