Messi becomes most decorated footballer with 44th trophy win

Lionel Messi has solidified his position as the most decorated player in the history of the sport by clinching his 44th trophy for both club and country.

The achievement was realised as Messi’s Inter Miami emerged victorious in the Leagues Cup, ultimately winning an intense penalty shootout.

In a thrilling contest against Nashville SC, the match concluded in a 1-1 during regulation time, with the Argentina captain scoring the only goal for Miami.

However, it was the penalty shootout that determined the winner of the prestigious Leagues Cup, with Messi and his teammates showcasing resilience and skill to secure the title.

Notably, Messi’s influence extended beyond team success. He was bestowed with the Golden Boot, recognising his remarkable feat of scoring 10 goals across seven matches for his club.

Adding to his accolades, Messi was also named the Player of the Tournament, a testament to his exceptional contributions on the field.

The victory holds a special significance for Inter Miami, as it marks their maiden trophy since the club’s establishment.
