Messi's third MLS goal of the season secures a point for Miami, who remain second in the Eastern Conference, while Toronto continues their winless streak.

Overview

  • Lionel Messi scored a left-footed volley in first-half stoppage time, equalizing for Inter Miami after Federico Bernardeschi gave Toronto FC a brief lead early in the second half.
  • Messi had a goal disallowed earlier in the match following a VAR review, which ruled he committed a foul before scoring.
  • Toronto FC created significant opportunities, hitting the post twice in the first half, but remains winless this season, sitting 14th in the Eastern Conference standings with three points.
  • Inter Miami, now with 14 points, trails Columbus Crew by one point in the Eastern Conference standings and has a game in hand.
  • Inter Miami shifts focus to the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinal second leg against LAFC on April 9, where they must overturn a 1-0 aggregate deficit to advance.
