At Inter Miami, there is less than a month between Lionel Messi’s competitive debut and Inter’s Leagues Cup title. His stats underscore just how big the Argentine’s share was. In seven games, the 36-year-old scored ten times and also prepared another goal. The world champion not only secured the title of top scorer, but also that of best player.
For the attacking player it was the 44th title of his career – no player has such a large trophy case. He also expanded his positive final record: he has now won 30 of the 42 finals he has contested so far. No wonder the international press is full of praise for “La Pulga”.
