Lionel Messi is used to winning titles. Throughout his career, he has won championships all over the world, and while you might think adding one more trophy wouldn’t cause much excitement, that’s not the case. The Argentine star made history by winning the Eastern Conference title with Inter Miami and celebrated with excitement with his teammates as they waited for the MLS Cup final against the Vancouver Whitecaps.
While the end of Messi’s career is drawing ever closer, the Argentine hasn’t stopped breaking records and now it’s his time to make history at Inter Miami. Beckham’s side have never reached this stage before, and while they were able to lift the trophy with a star-studded squad, the most important match is next Saturday’s fixture.

Messi was once again the star of the show for Inter Miami, with the players celebrating in style after being crowned conference champions. After lifting the trophy and celebrating with his fans, Messi looked for the people most important to him: his mother and wife.
Leo’s mother Celia Cuccittini and his wife Antonella Roccuzzo were seen in one of the stadium boxes. After the match, Messi approached them and gave his mother a gentle hug and his wife a romantic kiss as the number 10 celebrated another achievement in his career.
This image went viral because it shows the most human and sincere side of Lionel Messi, who is used to winning things in football, but shows that the most important thing is to be with the people who have always accompanied you in life.
Inter Miami vs. Vancouver Whitecaps: History leading up to the final
Inter Miami and the Vancouver Whitecaps have a short but intense history of rivalry. The teams have only met three times, with Miami winning once and the Whitecaps winning twice.
Now, both sides will be looking to make history in this showdown that will decide the MLS Cup grand final and mark the age-old rivalry of European soccer.
All eyes are on the new confrontation between Lionel Messi and Thomas Muller, who have played more matches in Europe and the German has won more matches than the Argentine. Most importantly, at national team level, Muller won the 2014 World Cup against Messi, and the number 10 will be looking for revenge for the same reason.
