@muertinez I'm not sure if Messi can carry Miami out of last place alone, but the Buquests + Messi + Martinez link up was pretty palpable tonight.

I mean, what a debut for the GOAT. It couldn’t have been any other way! Amazing job by the Miami goalkeeper too. If not for being overshadowed by Messi, he deserved a MOTM too.

Also, appreciate the post match thread! I hope this community continues to grow and we have regular match and post match discussions!

edit: not sure if it’s memmy or lemmy that hasn’t introduced post editing yet but it’s actually

Miami 3 pts. Azul 0 pts.

Likely memmy, post editing is definitely a thing in Lemmy.

Unbelievable and somehow totally expected.

First twenty minutes I was genuinely laughing at how bad Miami was. Their goalkeeper is a wonder.

Busi is such class, I love him. And what a debut for Messi!!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That was me too. I hadn't watched a Miami match all year and was genuinely shocked at the level of play. Towards the end I was sure Messi would get his goal..in the penalties 🙃

Glad they held it together long enough for that awesome moment.

Fairytale moment there. Glad he got a W on his debut.

Outside of the free kick, how did Messi look?

[–] Purplexingg 2 points 1 year ago

Very good. Got into space easily, set up a few nice passes and had a few very nice goals that were called off due to offsides. He looks great right now.
