Lionel Messi scored his 900th career goal in a 1-1 draw against Nashville SC on March 19, 2026, becoming only the second men's footballer to reach the milestone, during Inter Miami’s final home game at Chase Stadium before moving to a new venue. The goal, scored in the 7th minute, came in the CONCACAF Champions Cup second leg, but Nashville advanced on away goals despite the aggregate tie. Messi, 38, has now scored 81 goals in 96 appearances for Miami since joining in 2023, adding to his totals of 672 for Barcelona, 32 for PSG, and 115 for Argentina. He remains second on the all-time goals list behind Cristiano Ronaldo’s 965, with Brazilian legend Pele’s total disputed. Messi, widely regarded as football’s greatest player, has extended his Inter Miami contract through 2028 and is expected to play in the 2026 World Cup, where Argentina will defend its title.
