I have been respected by the best in history.

This beautiful scene took place today during the match between Inter Miami and Atlas Club in the American Cup!

Inter Miami was leading by one goal, and in the 80th minute

Atlas Club scored the equalizer, allowing player Matías Cuccaro to celebrate the goal in front of the Inter Miami fans!

To add to the drama in the last second of the match, Messi scored the winning goal for Inter Miami and celebrated in front of Atlas player Matías Cuccaro!

The beautiful thing is that after the match, Matias Cuccaro said that Messi apologized to him for the celebration, hugged him, and gave him his jersey.

Cuccaro said in the end, “I was respected by the best in history!”

After the match, Messi reached 83 goal contributions in 68 matches with Inter Miami,

reaching 12 goal contributions in July and 388 assists as the player with the most goals in football history.

The story from beginning to end
