Lionel Messi scored a perfect free kick during Inter Miami's win against Porto at the Club World Cup. The 37-year-old soccer star bent the ball over the wall and past the goalkeeper from 20 yards out. This goal marked his 68th career free kick goal and helped his team come back for a 2-1 victory. Former players watching the game called Mwhile a genius and said people should see him play live. The strike put Inter Miami closer to reaching the tournament's next round.

Messi has scored 50 goals across 61 games since joining Inter Miami two years ago. He became the club's top scorer even though they only started playing in 2018. The eight-time Ballon d'Or winner has scored six goals at Club World Cup tournaments throughout his career. He sits just one goal behind Cristiano Ronaldo for the most goals ever scored at this competition. Against Porto he completed more dribbles than any other player and made 56 passes during the match.

Inter Miami made history by becoming the first MLS team to beat a European club in official competition. Manager Javier Mascherano said the team proved they can compete against anyone from around the world. The victory gives American soccer fans a chance to watch their local teams play against top international clubs. Inter Miami needs just a draw against Palmeiras to advance to the knockout rounds.
