Lionel Messi: Inter Miami forward scores twice in 4-0 win over DC United

Lionel Messi returned to MLS action with a two-goal performance as Inter Miami beat DC United 4-0. The 39-year-old struck in the 47th and 60th minutes to complete the rout, four days after scoring in what was his final international match for Argentina. Miami had already been cruising thanks to Luis Suárez, who scored twice in the first half—first in the third minute and again six minutes before halftime. Suárez also set up Messi after the break with a pass that followed a run through three defenders. Miami won for only the second time in 11 MLS matches and sit second in the Eastern Conference, 14 points behind Nashville FC.
