Another comprehensive win for Beckham‘s club. This time with a 4-0 scoreline. Josef Martinez opened the scoring after converting a penalty kick in the twelfth minute. Robert Taylor doubled Inter Miami’s lead about 20 mins later. It was then a quiet game for quite some time but Inter Miami dominated possession. The next goal came in the 78th minute and it was an own goal by Charlotte’s Adilson Malanda.
Lionel Messi scored the fourth and final goal of the game and shut shop. He then celebrated in a unique way again. Recently, a source revealed that the World Cup winner used to do these unique Marvel-themed celebrations for his children. After a Thor and Black Panther celebration in previous games, this time he followed a Spiderman theme, ‘Spider Messi’.

Lionel Messi has taken Inter Miami to the next level
Messi’s impact at Inter Miami has simply been phenomenal. The Argentine soccer legend is stunningly scoring match-winners for fun at this point. Interestingly, it isn’t only him. He has raised his club’s quality of soccer on the pitch. A name like Robert Taylor has taken his gameplay to the next level. 18-year-old Benjamin Cremaschi scored a goal with one of his first touches. Jordi Alba bagged two assists on his first start.
Sergio Busquets anchors the midfield and instinctively looks to make ground-breaking passes. In short, Inter Miami, who were on a ten-game winless streak before the Argentine legend joined, are now on a four-game winning streak. Despite that, head coach Martino stated that they need to improve further mainly defensively. Happy times for David Beckham and everyone at the club with Messi at the helm.
