Despite today’s result, Messi’s impact at Inter Miami has already been superhit! On his debut, he scored a last-second winner through a nail-biting freekick. While the game was heading towards a draw, the World Cup winner had other plans. Funnily, he has been in Miami for just a few weeks. Just weeks earlier, he signed a $55 million deal per season for two-and-a-half years.
