MESSI RETURNS ⭐ Inter Miami vs. Columbus Crew | MLS Highlights | ESPN FC

Clouds are clearing here above New Stadium. And they show Leo Messi on the big screen, and the crowd reacts. They're anticipating he comes in. Rodrigo de Paul is back. It is the home debut for Casemiro. Man, I really like the confidence in the start right now for Columbus. But they turn it over! Goalkeeper off his line! Pistolero! At this stage of his career, he's already sightlined the goalkeeper, Schulte, off his line. He recognized the moment that ball came back across to him. He had the opportunity to hit it the first time. He bends it, curls it, and bounces it into the empty net. Catches the goalkeeper completely stranded. They were comfortably taking apart their in-state rivals and ended up losing 4-3. Oh, it's in! Own goal from nothing! Picard steering it through, and Columbus will take it. Whoever claims it, it doesn't matter. We are on level terms. Secure seats at leaguescup.com Suarez flags down. Numbers coming. Alex! Oh, I think this is going to be close. Luis Suarez looks to be in an onside position. He looks to have timed that one perfectly. After review, there's no offside on the play. Final decision is goal. Pincher wants to get those wheels turning. Into Miami, it's Suarez! Oh! Leo Messi's off the bench, preparing to come in here in the 52nd minute. Señoras y señoras, Leo Messi! DePaul takes it, Messi gets his first touch. Right into the attacking third, into the 18, Messi! Side netting. Backdoor, Suarez. Still got it, up and over for Messi! Suarez, deft little touch back across, gets away from Zawadzki, lifts it up for Lionel Messi. Not what you would see from a winning effort. Hint of a handball. Play on. And there's going to be a free kick, Casemiro late. Yeah, it's going to be a yellow. Bryce Mendes. Good ball! How's that for your new number 10? And that is the end of the match on the night of the triumphant return of Inter-Miami's number 10. It is Columbus' number 10 that rescues the day.
