Messi Set MLS Record as he Scores Two Goals for Inter Miami to Beat Nashville
Lionel Messi continued his incredible run of form on Saturday, scoring twice in Inter Miami’s 2-0 win over Nashville SC. The 38-year-old captain made history once again, becoming the first player in MLS to score multiple goals in five straight matches; a record he just set last week with four consecutive braces.
Messi opened the scoring in the 17th minute with a stunning free-kick, marking the 69th direct free-kick goal of his career. He sealed the win in the 62nd minute, calmly rounding the goalkeeper before slotting the ball into the net. With 16 goals this season, Messi now shares the top scorer spot with Nashville’s Sam Surridge.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
