Lionel Messi continued his excellent form in Major League Soccer, scoring once and providing an assist to lead Inter Miami CF to a 2-0 victory over the Portland Timbers on Sunday. This win marked the club’s first at its new home stadium. 

Messi netted his 12th goal of the season and recorded his sixth assist, while German Berterame scored Miami’s second goal during a dominant performance at Nu Stadium. This victory ended Miami’s frustrating 0-3-1 start at the venue, which officially opened in April.
