Messi aims to lift the Leagues Cup tonight 🏆 | OneFootball

Lionel Messi will go for a new title in his extensive and successful career when Inter Miami seeks the championship in the Leagues Cup this Sunday starting at 21:00, as the team led by Javier Mascherano faces Seattle Sounders at the Lumen Field stadium in the northern U.S. city. According to the tournament rules, Seattle will play the final at home, having been the best-ranked among the four semifinalists.

Despite the advantage for the Sounders of playing the final at home, Inter arrives at this match with high morale after a convincing 3-1 victory against Orlando City, with a double from Messi, in the previous round. On the other hand, Seattle Sounders comes after an important 2-0 victory against Los Angeles Galaxy as visitors, which helped them reach the final.

This match will crown the new champion of the tournament that annually brings together the best representatives of the Mexican League and MLS. For Messi, it is a chance to add his third star with the Florida club after the Leagues Cup 2023 and the MLS Supporters’ Shield in 2024. It would be the 47th trophy he would lift in his career, counting those achieved with the Argentina National Team, Barcelona, PSG, and now Inter.
