Inter Miami's Lionel Messi has reached his third MLS Cup final with his team. After a season plagued by injuries, Inter Miami advanced to its first-ever MLS Cup final after beating New York City FC 5-1 on Saturday night.
The win marks another milestone for the Argentine superstar, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest soccer players of all time. Messi has played a crucial role in his team's success this season, scoring three goals and providing an incredible 405th assist of his career, which is believed to be a record.
Messi's teammates have been struggling with injuries throughout the season, but he remains on the field as if injury-free. His goal-scoring partner, Tadeo Allande, has impressed in their final games, scoring three goals and providing assists for some of Messi's efforts.
Inter Miami will host Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS Cup final next Saturday. The team had never made it past the opening postseason round in its first five seasons, but Messi joined midway through the season when it was at the bottom of the standings and in an 11-match winless streak.
The stage is set for a thrilling showdown between Inter Miami and Vancouver Whitecaps. Fans from both teams will flock to watch this match, with tennis great Carlos Alcaraz already making an appearance on Saturday night, along with some members of the US women's national team.

Messi's third MLS Cup final is just what the league needed - a superstar draw! 
Inter Miami's journey to this point has been wild, but it's awesome they made it together 
. Can't wait for the Vancouver Whitecaps matchup next Sat 
️!
. The guy's a legend and has carried his team to the finals single-handedly 
. I love how he's forming a partnership with Tadeo Allande - they're like a dynamic duo on the field 
. Now we get to see if Inter Miami can actually take home that MLS Cup title... fingers crossed for them! 
. It's like he's playing on borrowed time or something. I mean, 405th assist and all, but at his age, you'd think his body would just give up on him already. And Inter Miami has to rely on this one guy to carry the team to the finals? It's not exactly a balanced roster if you ask me 
. And now they get to play against Vancouver Whitecaps, who'll probably be all like "oh look, we can finally beat Messi and his team" 
. Can't wait for the inevitable collapse when Inter Miami loses without him being able to play...
I mean, who would've thought that Messi could lead a team from nowhere to an MLS Cup final? 
It's like he's defying gravity and inspiring everyone around him with his incredible skills on the field. And can we talk about how he's been carrying this team on his back all season? 
And his assist record is insane - 405?!?! That's just crazy! 
I mean, don't get me wrong, the guy's a legend and all, but Inter Miami was struggling before he even joined the team - what if they didn't make it to the final without him? 
Also, I'm curious about Tadeo Allande - has he been this good all season or was it just because Messi was playing with him? 
And what's with the team's lackluster performance before Messi joined mid-season - 11-match winless streak? That's not exactly the kind of momentum you want going into the finals 
. Still, Inter Miami advancing is a huge deal and fans are excited for the MLS Cup final against Vancouver Whitecaps next weekend 
As for the opposing team, Vancouver Whitecaps, I don't know much about them but it's gotta be an exciting matchup 
, but hey, it just goes to show how clutch Messi can be when he's on the pitch 
. His assists record is wild, though - 405th and counting? 
. Anyway, should be an epic final match next Saturday! Who will come out on top? Will Vancouver Whitecaps give Inter Miami a run for their money? 
Their team was struggling with injuries but Messi just carries them all over the place 
I'm surprised Inter Miami made it this far last year, they were supposed to get knocked out in the first round 
but Messi is like a superhero for their team 
I wonder how he does against other top teams though, will he break records again? 
And can we talk about how he's been carrying his team all season despite being injured himself? 
It's like he has some kind of superpower. 
Can't wait to watch Messi and his teammates bring home that championship trophy! 
?
! and now they're makin' a deep run in the playoffs 
. their game against Vancouver Whitecaps is gonna be EPIC
