Messi’s Magic Free-Kick Propels Inter Miami to Historic Club World Cup Victory

Lionel Messi delivered a moment of brilliance, scoring a stunning free-kick to secure Inter Miami’s first-ever Club World Cup win in a thrilling 2-1 comeback against Porto.

After a disappointing goalless draw against Egypt’s Al Ahly in their opening match, Inter Miami found themselves trailing early when Porto’s Samu Aghehowa converted a penalty. However, the MLS side responded swiftly in the second half, with Venezuelan midfielder Telasco Segovia leveling the score just two minutes after the break, capitalizing on Marcelo Weigandt’s precise cross.

The match turned on its head in the 53rd minute when Messi stepped up for a 20-yard free-kick and expertly curled it into the top corner, leaving the Porto goalkeeper with no chance. The goal sealed a memorable victory for Inter Miami, marking a significant milestone in their Club World Cup campaign.

In another Group A clash, Brazil’s Palmeiras overcame Al Ahly 2-0 in a weather-disrupted encounter at MetLife Stadium. The game was temporarily halted due to lightning threats in East Rutherford, New Jersey, but not before Palmeiras secured the win.

The match saw controversy when English referee Anthony Taylor initially sent off Palmeiras forward Raphael Veiga for a high challenge, only to downgrade the decision to a yellow card after a VAR review. Al Ahly’s misfortune continued when Wessam Abou Ali inadvertently headed a free-kick into his own net, giving Palmeiras the lead. Substitute Flaco Lopez then extended the advantage with a well-taken goal just before the hour mark.

As thunderstorms approached, officials suspended play in the 63rd minute, urging fans to seek shelter. After a 45-minute delay, the match resumed, but Palmeiras held firm to claim all three points.

With Messi inspiring Inter Miami’s triumph and Palmeiras overcoming adversity, the Club World Cup continues to deliver drama and unforgettable moments.
