Recently, Lionel Messi received an award that he has never received in his career.
Lionel Messi won the man of the week award for the first time in Major League Soccer (MLS), after he scored and assisted in a 3-2 away win over Sporting Kansas City on October 14. /4, and in front of 72,610 spectators.
Messi became the first MLS player to score at least five goals and five assists in the first five matches of this season . With this latest award from M10, Inter Miami has accumulated 3 best player titles in the past 8 weeks. Among them, Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez was also honored once.
The 36-year-old player helped his team end a series of poor performances and brought the club back to the top of the table. Inter Miami lost Jordi Alba to injury late in the match, which slightly affected their victory.
Lionel Messi’s arrival at Inter Miami has changed the MLS team co-owned by David Beckham. The Argentine icon led The Herons to win the Leagues Cup last August, the first major title the club has won since its founding in 2018.
The Barcelona legend has also been reunited with a number of his former teammates, with Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets all joining Inter Miami and creating a squad that promises to compete for titles.
In the near future, Messi and his teammates will continue to fight in MLS when they welcome Nashville at home, the match taking place at 6:30 a.m. on April 21 (Vietnam time).
