Selena Gomez goes viral for reaction to Lionel Messi’s miss vs. LAFC
It turns out Lionel Messi is human after all.
Messi and Inter Miami cruised to a 3-1 road win on Sunday vs. LAFC in MLS action, but the Argentine did not find himself on the scoresheet on the night.
His key moment came in the 38th minute with Miami up 1-0 thanks to Facundo Farias’ 14th-minute opener. In this instance, Messi maneuvered around several LAFC defenders before playing a quick one-two to get in front of goal for what should’ve been 2-0.
Instead, LAFC goalkeeper John McCarthy made himself big and managed a colossal save given the circumstance.
