00:00Harrison, New Jersey have sold out $25,000 for Lionel Messi in Inter-Miami's first Major League Soccer regular season match at the New York Red Bulls, who are trying to be the first team to beat Miami in the Messi era.
00:15Welcome inside Red Bull Arena alongside Taylor Drummond. I'm Jake Zibbin. What a month it's been for Inter-Miami. Eight unbeaten. They won League's Cup. They advanced to the final of the year.
00:27Inter-Miami playing at FC Dallas. FC Dallas in their red tops, blue shorts, blue socks. Inter-Miami in what is becoming ubiquitous, what is becoming signature, the pink.
00:47Coming through as well. Maybe an early opportunity for Dallas. Ferreira just wide. Second minute. Wonderful chance for Jesus Ferreira. He's the full body chase.
00:59What a save. Ferreira puts it in and the flag comes up on FC Dallas. So close to an opener. Denied by the offside flag.
01:10Because Bernard Camungo was onside. Messi trying to get Taylor behind. Taylor up and running. Back to Lionel Messi.
01:27Right clockwork. His sixth goal for Inter-Miami and it's another early lead. The flag has come up late though on Inter-Miami. They notice it now.
01:41We've already had an FC Dallas goal ruled out for offside. It looks like we have an Inter-Miami one as well.
01:49But here I was talking about Atlanta United had a chance early on. Inter-Miami went the other way, scored. Orlando City, same thing.
01:57Watch this movement from Gomez and Busquets. Actually one of those was against Inter-Miami. Here's his decision. Gives the goal.
02:04This is the right decision. There's got to be nuance in understanding how this happens.
02:11But my word. Talk about taking the energy out of the building with a great run up and pattern.
02:19Messi. Velasco over the wall and just wide.
02:29Messi. Looking for Robert Taylor.
02:34Velasco. Yedlin had to intervene. He did. Corner coming for Dallas.
02:40That's a good spell of possession from FC Dallas.
02:46Messi.
02:50Alba going forward. There was no easing into it in his 26 minutes against Orlando.
02:55He ran through a wall, kicked everyone around him and said, I'm here.
02:58Forward to Jordi Alba.
03:01Joseph Martinez. Alba, Messi.
03:05Martinez. Broken up by Dallas. Taylor back on it.
03:10Leaving it for Jordi Alba.
03:12Now Messi.
03:14Trying to get it to Martinez. Read well by Fabrino Quino.
03:18And the offside flag comes up on Inter-Miami and we've reached the hydration break in this first half.
03:25Messi with Martinez to his left.
03:28Messi coming around to far right.
03:30Little Messi to Joseph Martinez. Big save.
03:33Martin paused and the offside flag does come up in the end.
03:43And Joseph Martinez knows it because he knows that with all the...
03:47To Miami. Robert Taylor making a run. Messi through. Robert Taylor is in.
03:51Robert Taylor saved by Paz.
03:54And the rebound is there for Messi.
03:56Oh, he chipped Paz to far right back on his line to prevent the goal.
04:03One of the summer Olympics. Not seven teams.
04:07Farfan Gopal and Kenyon.
04:13The answer from the 30-year-old Argentine.
04:18Dallas levels it. 1-1.
04:21Messi.
04:29Well, we spotlighted Kenyon.
04:34Well, the 25,000 just woke up in this building, didn't it?
04:37He's going to have time and space in the midfield.
04:40Closed down by Molasco. Gets around Molasco.
04:43Molasco added when he talked about his excitement to play with Messi.
04:46He hopes he gets to Monkham at one point, but he has just now.
04:49Robert Taylor!
04:51He would have been able to score with the league's cup he's had.
04:54But he sends it over.
04:56Yeah, but how about the synergy there?
04:58Kamungo! Oh, Romelu Kamungo!
05:08The dream continues for Bernhard Kamungo!
05:12And Dallas leads 2-1!
05:22Transition. Counter.
05:26It's exactly what we thought from FC Dallas.
05:30Couldn't afford to play for a club team.
05:33Didn't play for an academy team.
05:35Just his high school.
05:37He dominated there.
05:39Spent nine to contract in preseason training.
05:41Two years, 22 goals.
05:43Their all-time leading score makes the first team.
05:46Taylor combines.
05:48They're trying to get it back. It made it to Messi.
05:50Miami. Quickly forward to Messi.
05:52Trying to turn around to Fara.
05:54Puskac in to Messi.
05:56Messi through. Diego Gomez!
05:58That was blocked by Jesus, or was it not?
06:02It was just missed by Gomez.
06:04Ridiculous from Sergio Puskac.
06:06Absolutely ridiculous.
06:08Eyes on the back of his head.
06:10Nobody sees this ball.
06:12It's Kamungo!
06:14He was there for a second.
06:16And he put it wide.
06:17Farfan floating it.
06:19Marrero!
06:22Missed again.
06:24That's the second chance he's had off his head.
06:26Rolled on Messi on Apple TV with Inter Miami.
06:30Players can be seen.
06:32Tonight.
06:34Has certainly taken advantage of that opportunity.
06:37But Messi gets around him.
06:39Now clipping it toward Taylor.
06:41Jordi Alba again.
06:43Jordi Alba, good ball in.
06:45Martinez couldn't get it.
06:47That's the dream of a ball for any nine.
06:50Are you not entertained?
06:54Lionel Messi.
06:56Everybody on their feet every time he's on the ball.
06:59Now Robert Taylor trying to get it back to him.
07:02Velasco will serve.
07:04Driven towards Legette!
07:06And in!
07:10Dallas has the third!
07:12Velasco's taking credit!
07:143-1!
07:16Away from the keeper.
07:18Then it could go untouched.
07:20Because Drake Callender cannot over-commit.
07:23Fans, this is our house by the supporters here in Dallas.
07:27Who paid hundreds of dollars to come here.
07:30Alba cutting it back!
07:32Kravitzky scores!
07:37Minutes after coming on!
07:39The 18 year old from Miami!
07:41Gets one back!
07:433-2!
07:463-2!
07:49It's like having another playmaker on the field with Jordi Alba.
07:53On this left side.
07:56Jordi Alba, he played him the ball.
07:58He was cut from the Barcelona Academy.
08:00Went to Valencia.
08:02Played it to the first team at Valencia.
08:04Then of course signed by Barcelona.
08:06Areola!
08:08Cutting it back!
08:10What an intervention and on goal!
08:12Robert Taylor trailing the play!
08:15Thought he had saved a sure opportunity for Dallas.
08:19Instead, it's pass Callender.
08:21Ending!
08:234-3!
08:254-2!
08:28And I think VAR may have something to say about this.
08:33Because there may have been a foul on Joseph Martinez that began this attacking play.
08:39Robert Taylor frustrated.
08:41But both goals have come off of Messi on the ball.
08:44Here he is again.
08:46Out to Yedlin.
08:48Yedlin driven in!
08:50Messi's got an angle.
08:52Will Messi try?
08:54He's going to clip it in!
08:56Oh my goodness!
08:58It's Marco Farfan!
09:00And it's 4-3!
09:08We have seen it all the night.
09:12As clinical of a header you will ever see.
09:16Brown.
09:18Taylor cutting it back.
09:20Goes down!
09:22Another really dangerous free kick upcoming for Inter Miami.
09:26You're walled to do its job.
09:29Messi!
09:31Up! Oh the rebound!
09:36Sensational!
09:38Lionel Messi again!
09:404-4!
09:47Are you kidding me?
09:52How many times is one player in his professional life going to answer the call?
09:59He's going to answer the bell.
10:02Every single time.
10:05World Cup.
10:06Barcelona.
10:08Paris.
10:10Now in Major League Soccer.
10:12For Inter Miami.
10:14Does he have another in him?
10:16Messi.
10:18Turning. Whipping it in.
10:20Tafari heading it away.
10:22Messi!
10:24Right into Tafari.
10:26Hops right back up on his feet.
10:28Took the block and potentially saved the game.
10:33The 90 before stoppage time.
10:34Messi to Robinson with space.
10:38Robby Robinson.
10:40Jordi Alba.
10:42Alba in towards Robinson.
10:45Ibiaga sending it away.
10:47Ibiaga coming up.
10:49Messi.
10:51Over to Jordi Alba.
10:53Messi holding off Pamukkale.
10:55Cutting it back.
10:57Lionel Messi.
10:59Look at how many red shirts are around him.
11:01You have to don't you?
11:04Messi into the wall this time.
11:07Spectacular tonight.
11:09Once again.
11:11From Lionel Messi.
11:13Bringing into Miami back.
11:15Trailing for the first time in this tournament.
11:17Down two goals.
11:26Messi scores.
11:28Of course.
11:30Miami up one note.
11:32In this penalty shootout.
11:34Sometimes easier to read.
11:36To match Lionel Messi's make.
11:38Straight down the middle.
11:40From Martin Piles.
11:43Down the middle.
11:45Busquets scores.
11:47Miami lead 2-1.
11:49You love seeing the respect between two players.
