The goal in last weekend’s match helped Messi become the fastest player to reach 850 goals in football history.

After scoring in the 2-3 defeat to Atlanta United on November 10, Lionel Messi became the fastest player in football history to reach 850 goals at 37 years and 138 days. Notably, M10 reached this milestone 98 matches less than the greatest scorer in history, Cristiano Ronaldo (at 38 years, 210 days).

With a defeat in the third match against Atlanta United, Inter Miami’s season ended early when they were eliminated in the first round of the 2024 MLS Cup playoffs and did not meet the expectations of the fans. However, these will be important lessons for the “Herons” if they want to perform better next year.

Messi sets milestone faster than Ronaldo in terms of matches and age

In another development, according to Argentine media site El Crack Deportivo, Inter Miami’s hot seat may change generals.

Accordingly, former Barcelona coach – Xavi Hernandez – could replace Tata Martino to lead Inter Miami, when the Argentine strategist’s position is in doubt after the defeat last weekend.

Xavi left Barcelona last summer after failing to return the La Liga giants to the top of European football as a leader, but he remains a big name in the running to lead Inter Miami.

However, Argentine media believe that Inter Miami may be making a big mistake by replacing a strategist considered the best in MLS this season. The team with the record points in MLS will have to give another chance to the strategist of Messi’s compatriot.
