In the 84th minute, Messi quickly broke through two defensive players after DePaul's pass, and kicked without hesitation at the top of the penalty area. A precise long shot helped Miami International overtake the score 2-1. As the game was approaching the end, in the 89th minute, Messi received the ball with his back in front of the penalty area and cleverly passed it to Suarez with his heel. The latter calmly faced the goalkeeper and sent the ball into the net, locking the victory for Miami International, and finally defeating his opponent 3-1.

Messi demonstrated unparalleled skills with a goal and an assist in the game in 45 minutes. Especially in just five minutes, he created two consecutive goals opportunities, showing his huge influence on the court.
