Messi makes USL debut at 7:30 a.m.: Pushing for 4 records, Miami looks to end 11-game winless streak

 Now, the matches of Inter Miami have become the most watched football events in the United States, mainly due to the influence of Lionel Messi and his exceptional skills.

According to the schedule, Inter Miami will be playing an away match against the New York Red Bulls on August 27th at 7:30 AM Beijing time. This game is considered to be Messi's official debut for Inter Miami in the MLS regular season.

In the past month, Messi has led Inter Miami from being an underdog team to winning the North American League Cup, becoming the first MLS team to do so. They have also reached the finals of the U.S. Open Cup for the first time, achieving historic breakthroughs. Messi has played 8 games so far, scoring in every game except one, with a total of 10 goals and 3 assists. His performance at a superstar level has completely changed the landscape of soccer in the United States and sparked a wave of interest among American fans.

According to the New York Post, tickets for this match are in high demand as it could be Messi's MLS debut. The average ticket price has already reached $496, with a chance of breaking the previous record set during Inter Miami's match against FC Dallas at $678. It has also been reported that the most expensive ticket is priced at $17,554, plus around $6,000 in taxes, making a total of $23,528, which would set a new record for the highest ticket price in MLS history.

It is said that the opponents of teams facing Messi in away matches have greatly benefited from the increased ticket sales.

According to coach Martino's disclosure, Messi's body has reached its limit after playing 8 games in just 33 days. There have also been rumors of a potential injury to Messi's left leg. Consequently, it is highly possible that Messi will be on the bench for this match, waiting for the right moment to change the course of the game.

If Messi does play, there are four records that he could potentially achieve:

1. Score his first goal in the MLS.

2. Secure his first victory in the league.

3. Score against the New York Red Bulls, becoming the 107th team he has scored against in his career.

4. Extend his consecutive goal involvement to 9 games, surpassing his personal record. So far, he has contributed with 10 goals and 3 assists in 8 games.

For the rest of the season, Messi's goals are to lead Inter Miami to win the U.S. Open Cup and make a push for the MLS playoffs. The latter will be more challenging, as the team has recently gone winless in 11 league matches. However, with Messi's presence, there is hope that Inter Miami can reverse this trend.
