Inter Miami face elimination from the Concacaf Champions League quarterfinals in Wednesday's second leg, which offers a chance to reverse course after losing the first leg to LAFC last week. The good news for Inter Miami is that the margin of defeat in Los Angeles was a narrow one – LAFC notched a 1-0 win last week thanks to a goal from Nathan Ordaz in the 57th minute.

Lionel Messi scored for the third time in four Major League Soccer matches this season, helping Inter Miami get a 1-1 tie with Toronto FC.

Messi’s goal makes history for the Herons, as he becomes the club’s all-time leader in goal contributions with 44, passing former Argentina teammate Gonzalo Higuaín, who had 43. Messi tied Higauin’s mark with his goal in a 2–1 win over the Philadelphia Union on Matchday 6.
