Lionel Messi scored the decisive goal to put Inter Miami's 1-0 up over Nashville SC through a perfectly executed free-kick in the 17th minute of their contest at Chase Stadium. After Miami earned a set-piece opportunity in a dangerous position, Messi stepped up and delivered a characteristic left-footed strike that curled precisely into the bottom left corner of the goal, leaving Nashville goalkeeper Joe Willis with no chance despite his diving effort.
