Although they almost came from behind to draw,

they left the field with a goal. The Argentine superstar scored a spectacular free-kick in the 86th minute. Miami came back from two goals down in the final four minutes to draw 3-3 against the Philadelphia Union.

Messi's magic-Miami

Javier Mascherano's team was not in a favorable position in the points table of the United States' Major League Soccer (MLS). As a result, nothing other than their victory could change that situation. With such an equation, Miami fell behind by double the margin in the first half. Although the gap was reduced in the 60th minute, Philadelphia scored another goal in their net in the 73rd minute. With a 3-1 scoreboard, the match was heading towards Miami's defeat.

The final four minutes of regulation time

saw a dramatic change in the game. In the 86th minute, Messi beat the Philadelphia goalkeeper with a powerful left-footed shot from just outside the box. He lifted the ball to the side where the keeper was standing. But even with his hands on it, the Albiceleste star's speed thwarted the goalkeeper. Miami avoided defeat in the fifth minute of added time before the final whistle.

The Florida club has been winless in seven of its last eight matches. Philadelphia has dominated them throughout the match. They have remained undefeated in all nine matches. Philadelphia is at the top of the MLS Inter Conference with 30 points from 15 matches. On the other hand, Miami, with 23 points from 14 matches, has dropped to sixth place in the table.

Meanwhile, Messi has scored 6 goals so far

this season. Of these, 3 have come in the last 5 matches. Amidst his ups and downs in form, the team is also practically disappointing. Miami have conceded 13 goals in their last four matches. In total, opponents have scored 23 goals in their last 8 matches.
