❌ Messi blunder! Star tries cheeky chip from the spot and fluffs it badly 🫠 | OneFootball

Geniuses make mistakes too. And big ones!

Last Saturday night (13), Messi missed a penalty that could have opened the scoring and suffered a 3-0 defeat with Inter Miami against Charlotte FC in the MLS.

Half an hour into the match, the Argentine star was brought down in the box. For the penalty, he attempted a chip shot à la El Loco Abreu, only to see goalkeeper Kristijan Kahlina save it with one hand and then secure the ball.

His three goals secured Charlotte’s ninth consecutive win, tying the MLS record.

With the defeat, Inter Miami dropped to seventh place in the Eastern Conference, 11 points behind leaders Philadelphia Union.
