Messi eyes first MLS crown as Miami face Mueller-led Vancouver
Lionel Messi aims to secure Inter Miami's first MLS title in a final against the Vancouver Whitecaps, a remarkable turnaround after a poor start to the season. Miami, bolstered by new signings like Rodrigo De Paul and a tactical shift, has surged through the playoffs, scoring 17 goals in five games. However, they face a strong Vancouver team led by German star Thomas Mueller. While Mueller downplays a personal rivalry, he holds a winning record against Messi. Despite Miami's home advantage and improved form, Vancouver's coach dismisses their earlier wins against Miami, setting the stage for a highly anticipated MLS Cup final.
