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!
idk how to code bots for game threads, ill leave that to the mods, but looking forward to an active community!
@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.
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!!
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?
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.
