Lionel Messi nearly scored an epic goal in a friendly against Inter Miami.

"Messi nearly scored an unrivaled goal in a stunning performance for Inter Miami," the British publication Sports Bible reported on Wednesday (April 23).

Miami lost 0-1 to FC Dallas in a Major League Soccer (MLS) preseason match at Cotton Bowl Stadium in Dallas on Sept. 23.

Miami fielded an ultra-luxury squad on the day. Messi, Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba, and Sergio Busquets all started. Despite the presence of FC Barcelona players, Miami fell short against Dallas.

Messi nearly scored an incredible goal in that game. After conceding a goal to Dallas, Miami earned a corner kick on the right flank. The kicker was none other than Messi.

Standing at the corner flag, instead of taking the corner kick to her teammates, Messi took a shot on goal herself. Seeing that the Dallas goalkeeper was slightly out of position, Messi sent a kick toward the goal. Messi's attempt was good, but the Dallas keeper barely got a hand to it.

Messi is a legend, considered by many to be the greatest player of all time. Rising through the ranks of FC Barcelona's youth teams, he was part of the club's golden era. After signing his professional contract in 2005, Messi scored 672 goals and made 303 assists in 778 먹튀검증 games across all competitions for Barcelona. He also won the Ballon d'Or, which is awarded to the best player in a season, eight times.

After leaving Barcelona in the summer of 2021, Messi played for Paris Saint-Germain before joining Miami in July 2023. He proved his class once again in Miami. Messi led Miami to the League Cup title in the 2023 season. It was Miami's first trophy in the franchise's history.
