00:01When Bertarame returned from injury and of course Messi and Suarez the dueling
00:08factors up top. Sinchuk comes back into the 11 and this is a Montreal side
00:14looking to extend its undefeated streak. The one constant in Miami since its
00:20entry into this league has been changed. Gonzalez will be this club's sixth
00:25manager in seven seasons. Luis Suarez gets us underway. Taken here by Messi. Messi able
00:34to lay this off. DePaul the return for Leo Messi top of the box. Messi with a shot
00:39off the post. Saint-Gillier diving and Montreal dodging a bullet early. A really
00:46good hand on it as this looks as though it's going to be going into the back end
00:49but DePaul Drax plays with him. He gives Messi the yard. Takes the strike.
00:57Telosco Segovia. Off the post. Rebound shot goes wide. Took another deflection. Segovia will
01:06have the third corner now for Miami.
01:12Living a charmed life at the moment. Montreal's goal that's twice. The woodwork has been hit.
01:19Segovia again. Crawls this into the 18. That time it finds the back of the net. Casemiro in the middle
01:26of it all and in the 20th minute into Miami. Rightfully takes the lead. It's 1-0.
01:35Montreal did not learn from the previous corner. Casemiro. He gets up so high. We saw this time and
01:42time again for Manchester United last season in the Premier League. Got himself in great positions.
01:46He has that little bit of a run up. Gets himself high and then heads the ball down. And Gillier
01:53very little time to react. It's a wonderful header from Casemiro to find the back of the net. But Montreal
02:18they've started to warm up. They've started to put more cross into box. Started to win more second balls.
02:21But Montreal they've started to warm up. They've started to put more cross into box. Started to win more second
02:29balls.
02:29It takes the slightest of deflections on the way through. But you can see from this side of things.
02:33On the set piece here. Miami looking to answer right back and regain the lead.
02:39Lionel Messi straight at goal and it's in. Oh remarkably it got by Gillier.
02:44And Inter-Miami in the 40th minute back on top.
02:54But from the goalkeeper side of things he has to save that. There is no question about it.
02:59Doesn't matter what angle you see it from. That should have been comfortable enough.
03:03He's looking at Petrasso and say that he took the touch off Petrasso.
03:09Still think the goalkeeper there. He has to be able to react better than that.
03:13You can argue and that's what he's saying to Petrasso.
03:24Messi. Running away from Longstaff. Lionel Messi continues on. Fires.
03:37Lionel Messi. What a ball ahead. Allen. Closed down by Gillier.
03:42And the keeper gets it done and clears it away.
03:44This ball from Messi is just incredible.
03:48He sees passes nobody else can see.
03:50And you just see. The guy just gambles and he steps up.
03:53He leaves a space there for Allen. But he just can't get that first touch out of his feet.
03:57Just here. That enables Gillier.
04:00Montreal trying to keep the modest momentum they have going.
04:04They're undefeated in their last four.
04:07They found an equalizer last week as late as the 79th minute.
04:11Some of the energy they have to expend for the opponents who are constantly up for them.
04:16Here's Messi though. On the move. Lionel Messi.
04:20Continuing on. Messi. Between three defenders. Messi. What a move. What a goal.
04:24Oh my goodness. Second of the night. For the greatest to ever do it.
04:36He's unbelievable to watch. He's low centre of gravity. When he picks this ball up.
04:42There's three Montreal players around him. And yes they're a little bit worried about making a challenge.
04:46But it's just his movement. You think the chance has gone.
04:49Then he picks the ball up here. Goes to his left. Then goes to his right. Then takes it on
04:52to his right.
04:53You get dizzy watching. It's incredible. Just when you think he's going to lose it.
04:58Just watch how close control. It's like the ball is on a piece of string on the end of his
05:04foot.
05:05And yes. Montreal defenders got bamboozled. It isn't the first time you've seen that from Messi.
05:11And it most certainly won't be the last water play.
05:15Petrosso. For stride. Nicely done. Now Longstaff to play this in.
05:20Owusu gets ahead to it. Big save made. The rebound fired. Off the side netting.
05:25Oh my. So close. Fabian Herber's exclusive net cam replay is brought to you by AT&T.
05:32And again it's a cross into the box. Owusu does really well.
05:36Here's Montreal. Comes back out to Dante Sealy.
05:40Sealy to work this ahead. Alexis Sanchez. Strike. Play it in.
05:47Locked away by into Miami. Here's Petrosso. Punched away by Dane St. Clair.
05:54Now Neal to work this ahead. Opportunity here. Strike with a shot. St. Clair with the save.
06:00The substitutions having an impact. Bringing the energy. Bringing the intensity.
06:05This is the first one. That comes through. But they keep it alive. They keep it alive. They get the
06:10ball.
06:12Eventually. Sanchez who plays it back. And that'll be huge disappointment. From Strike.
06:18He doesn't get any contact on it. And the ball's played in. And then Neal finds himself in a good
06:26spot.
06:26Once again. Goes to Strike. He takes the strike. St. Clair comfortable.
06:32Much better for Montreal. These last few minutes.
06:38Messi turns with it again. Able to play it across. It falls here. Suarez.
06:45Defended away by Bright. Yannick Bright. Out wide from Messi who plays it ahead.
06:53Now Luis Suarez is in alone. Luis Suarez. There it is.
06:59Miami gets a fourth. Suarez back in the scoring column. And it appears we're ten minutes away from Inter-Miami.
07:11Triova doing all of the attacking. Messi just stayed out on that right wing.
07:14This is going to be a close call. If anyone is playing Suarez on. It looks like it's Neal.
07:20But then Suarez looking for number five. They play it to Messi down the right side. And instead. Chiliet.
07:33Another chance. Messi. There it is. A Lionel Messi hat-trick. The exclamation point on the evening.
07:44This is extraordinary. And was there ever any doubt when he received the ball.
07:48But give credit to Inter-Miami. Because he's really, really good pressing. And they win the ball back.
07:54Top of the box.
07:59Here's Shaw. Shaw. Gives it a go. Fires and scores.
08:08Oh, what a moment for him.
08:1218-year-old Alexander Shaw.
08:17And a moment he'll never forget as well. We talk about the experience in this team. You think the chance
08:22has gone.
08:23And then give great credit to Shaw. Because he's thinking to himself. Is there a pass on?
08:27He takes that first touch. No, not too short. Second one, not too short. Third. I'm going to hit it.
08:32And he does. And you see Suarez. The brilliant thing about this.
08:36Suarez is the first one to put his hands up in the air. Because for experienced players, when you see
08:40young players showing up and putting the ball in the back of the net.
08:44There's no better feeling for those experienced players. Because you can guarantee it. A player like Shaw. It will have
08:50taken so much knowledge.
08:52From the likes of Suarez. From the likes of Messi. And I can guarantee you one thing. Those two players
08:57I've just mentioned would have been delighted with that finish from Shaw.
08:59What a moment for him.
09:03DePaul to work this ahead. Bertarame!
09:06Giving it a go. Bertarame. Looking to regain the scoring touch.
09:11St. Gillier diving.
09:19Out for a Heron's Corner. Beautiful new stadium. In South Florida.
09:27What a job they've done with this place. And into Miami.
09:33A true home to call its own.
09:38Brought down once again. Messi firing. This time directly.
09:43Into the arms of Gillier.
09:46Of Lionel Messi in these moments.
09:56Here we go.
10:00Extraordinary!
10:02There are no words.
10:05A four goal night for Lionel Messi.
10:09Touchdown Miami. It's seven to one.
10:13He's not human. He is from another planet.
10:17He. I said it. On his previous goal. He makes.
10:22The most difficult situations look so easy.
10:27Look how close he is to the 18 yard box. He gets it up. But then he gets it down.
10:31Down.
