Before the halftime whistle, the dynamic duo struck again. Messi provided a well-placed pass to Cremaschi, who then set up Taylor for a beautifully executed left-footed strike, increasing the lead to 3-0. After the break, Messi and Taylor teamed up once more. Messi set up Taylor with a perfectly timed through-ball, resulting in a low left-footed shot that found the back of the net, sealing a 4-0 victory for Inter Miami.

As the match winded down, Messi received a well-deserved ovation from the crowd when he was substituted in the 78th minute. Robbie Robinson replaced him and Yedlin took over the captaincy. In the 83rd minute, Taylor made way for Leonardo Campana.

Towards the end, Atlanta was awarded a penalty, but Inter Miami’s goalkeeper, Callender, made an impressive diving stop to preserve the clean sheet.
