Lionel Messi continues to redefine greatness in Major League Soccer. The Inter Miami captain notched three assists against the New England Revolution, pushing his total to 40 goal contributions this season — and putting him within striking distance of Carlos Vela’s 2019 record of 49.

The performance also marked a major milestone: 100 goal contributions for Inter Miami (66 goals, 34 assists) in just 80 appearances.

With the playoffs approaching, Messi shows no signs of slowing down. Miami has already clinched a postseason spot but remains hungry for momentum as they chase their first MLS Cup after narrowly missing out on the Leagues Cup earlier this year.

Five Assists from 400

Messi’s brilliance isn’t limited to league records — he’s now just five assists shy of 400 in his career, a number no active player has ever reached. His closest peers haven’t even topped 300.

At 38, with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon and a contract renewal on the table, Messi could enter the tournament after one of the best individual seasons of his career — still setting records, still raising the bar.
