After a postponement of the match, the Sporting Kansas City vs Inter Miami CONCACAF Champions Cup 2025 first-round match was played at Children's Mercy Park, and fans were treated to a Lionel Messi goal, that helped Javier Mascherano's side win their competition opener. After a goalless first half on the coldest day in Kansas, Messi found an opening after a flawless Sergio Busquets pass and scored the only goal of the night in the 56th minute. The home team Kansas City did press for a win, but were unable to break through Inter Miami's defense, and handed The Herons a 1-0 victory in the first-leg tie. Sporting Kansas City will head to their away match in Miami next week, with a 0-1 aggregate score. Pedro Gallese’s Impeccable ‘Statue of Liberty Save’ Off Lionel Messi’s Goal Attempt During Orlando City vs Inter Miami Club Friendly Match Goes Viral (Watch Video).
