Lionel Messi delivered an influential performance by scoring a goal and providing an assist in Inter Miami's 2-2 draw against the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday night. The match saw early offensive action as Inter Miami opened the scoring in the 21st minute of play.
Messi initiated the scoring opportunity with a precise cross that was headed by Luis Suarez directly into the path of forward Daniel Pinter, who converted the chance. Just five minutes later, Messi doubled his direct involvement by adding his name to the scoresheet in the 26th minute.
The Argentine star cut inside onto his preferred left foot from 12 yards out and curled a shot into the corner of the net. This strike marked Messi's first goal since returning to competitive action following the passing of his father.
Despite the two-goal contribution from Messi, Inter Miami ended up sharing the points with Philadelphia in a 2-2 draw.
