Lionel Messi achieved a remarkable milestone, scoring his 930th official career goal for Inter Miami against San Diego FC. His sensational free-kick, which was his 20th goal of the 2026 MLS season, also marked his 101st goal for the club. The match saw Anders Dreyer open the scoring for San Diego FC, but Messi equalized. Luis Suárez then put Miami ahead in the 74th minute. However, Dreyer scored again late in the game, securing a 2-2 draw. San Diego FC goalkeeper CJ dos Santos made three crucial saves against Messi in the final minutes.

This result extended Inter Miami's winless streak to four matches under coach Gerardo Martino. Despite the setback, the team holds third place in the Eastern Conference and prepares for their upcoming clash with Columbus Crew.
