Lionel Messi scores 100th Inter Miami goal in Campenones Cup final win

Lionel Messi, the Argentine football legend, scored his 100th goal for Inter Miami in the Campeones Cup final against Cruz Azul. The MLS side triumphed 2-0, with Messi opening the scoring in the 24th minute and Casemiro adding a second goal in the 81st minute. The victory marked Inter Miami's third trophy since Messi's arrival, following the League's Cup in 2023, the Supporters' Shield in 2024, and the MLS Cup in 2025.

This was the eighth edition of the Campeones Cup, a tournament always hosted by the MLS club. Mexican teams had previously won three editions, but Cruz Azul, although the current opponent, had never claimed the title. In his illustrious career, Messi has won 48 trophies, including 10 La Liga titles, four UEFA Champions League crowns with Barcelona, two Ligue 1 titles with Paris Saint-Germain, and numerous international successes with Argentina.
