After winning the pre-season match 3-2 on penalties against Club America, Lionel Messi made headlines by scoring his first goal of 2025.

In an intriguing gesture, Messi mocked Club America fans by displaying a three-finger sign followed by a "2-0" gesture.

This goal marked Messi’s first under new manager Javier Mascherano, following a remarkable 2024 season where he contributed 36 goals and assists in 19 matches. Inter Miami is now gearing up for their upcoming preseason tour and the 2025 MLS season, with their next match against Universitario de Deportes in Peru. They will kick off the MLS season on February 22 against New York City FC.
