After a week of anxiety, Lionel Messi had his long-awaited debut at Inter Miami and he did it in a dream way. The 35-year-old Argentine, considered by several experts to be the best soccer player of all time, played 35 minutes at the La Florida stadium and it was enough time for American fans to see with their own eyes what the striker is capable of doing with a ball.
On an unforgettable night, the former Barcelona and PSG player scored an anthology goal on the last play of the game, scoring a free kick at the gate of the area, as he has done dozens of times throughout his career. The Rosario-born left-hander, who has not even completed a week of training under the orders of Gerardo Tata Martino, was the great figure in a match that had all the flashes.
It is that this meeting generated a revolution, to the point that Inter Miami had to expand its capacity so that more than 20,000 spectators could enter. And in turn, great stars of American sports and entertainment were invited.
The eternal discussion about whether Messi is The Goat (the best of all time) can settle with an image that occurred 7 minutes into the second half, when Leo put on the 10 pink and stood at the side of the playing field ready to jump onto the field and make his debut. Among the shouting of the crowd, it was possible to see that behind him, personalities such as the tennis player Serena Williams, the basketball player LeBron James, the celebrity Kim Kardashian, the singer Marc Anthony, the artist Becky G, the model Victoria Beckham and several other figures took their cell phones as if they were children to record that unique moment.
Lionel Messi caused the people who are most sought after by fans to now look for him. He transformed the protagonists into witnesses. To the stars in admirers. He completely altered the roles. All through his football in a night that will go down in history for having been his premiere in the United States. LeBron did not hide this admiration on his networks: “Incredible!” He wrote to share Leo’s goal at the end along with the unmistakable GOAT emoji.

In addition, with his goal he made David Beckham emotional, who as a footballer was one of the best set-piece performers of all time. But here, even the Englishman was stunned.
Messi was the hero of an epic night that had goals, a show, music, fireworks and a goal of his own that Miami will never forget. But, the South Florida city should know that this was just the debut of the Ten who promises to leave his mark well marked in the MLS.
