Lionel Messi scores 2 on his first Inter Miami start in a 4-0 League Cups win over Atlanta United

Messi also gave an assist

Newsroom July 26 10:43

Fresh from a blockbusting, last-gasp winner on his debut against Cruz Azul last Friday, the Argentina superstar was back in the old routine against sorry Atlanta United last night.

With just 22 minutes on the clock, Messi had already bagged a brace in this Leagues Cup clash and DRV PNK stadium was rocking to his unmistakable beat.

The little maestro wasn’t finished there though, helping tee up Robert Taylor for a fantastic third before assisting the Finnish international for his second, and Miami’s fourth.

Of course, there was little doubt Messi would make an impact in South Florida.

But the speed at which the 36-year-old has settled has been quite something.
