Lionel Messi extends MLS record-breaking streak, scoring two goals against Nashville SC
Lionel Messi scored two goals in Inter Miami's 2-1 victory over Nashville SC on Saturday, extending his record-breaking streak of scoring multiple goals in a Major League Soccer game to five. Victory marked Miami's fifth consecutive win too and snapped Nashville's 15-match unbeaten streak in the league. Messi opened the scoring in the 17th minute, threading a free kick from just outside the box through a hole in Nashville's defensive wall and into the corner of the net, past the outstretched fingertips of goalkeeper Joe Willis. That gave Miami a 1-0 lead until Nashville equalized just after halftime when Hany Mukhtar headed in Andy Nájar's perfectly-weighted cross. A little over 10 minutes later, Messi put Miami back in front, capitalizing on a mistake from Willis who simply passed the ball to the Argentinian as he tried to clear it. Although Willis tried to atone for his lapse in concentration, Messi simply dribbled the ball around him and fired in an easy winner. Not since 2012 when he played for Barcelona has Messi scored more than one goal in five consecutive league games, according to ESPN – though, admittedly, LaLiga is a very different league to the MLS. 'There aren't very many words. It's incredible what he continues to do,' Miami head coach Javier Mascherano told reporters afterward, per MLS. 'To break great records now every three days… I've said it a thousand times today; he is the flag for our team. 'He is the one. He's the leader. He shows us the way to compete.' Messi has scored 16 goals so far this season – with 10 of those, as well as five assists – coming in his last five games. Miami, meanwhile, is fifth in the Eastern Conference but with three games in hand on all the teams above them. A win in all three games – while no small feat – would put the team top of the league.

PSG, Chelsea Vie for Club World Title, $40M Prize Money
The 2025 Club World Cup wraps up Sunday with a finals showdown between European soccer giants Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain. The winning club will earn $40 million in prize money, along with the new Voyager-inspired Tiffany trophy. The runner-up receives $30 million. This is the first expanded version of the men's Club World Cup with 32 teams, up from seven. The U.S.-hosted event has been plagued by problems, including the heat, spotty fields, weak attendance and injured stars. President Donald Trump told reporters this week he'd attend Sunday's game at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium. Advertisement More from Chelsea won the 2021 Club World Cup and was runner-up in 2012. This is PSG's first appearance in the final. The $1 billion prize pool is double the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and Brazil's Fluminense is arguably the biggest winner of the revamped club tournament. It lost 2-0 to Chelsea in the semifinals, but the club earned prize money of roughly $60 million, nearly matching their 2024 operating revenue of $72 million, per Sports Value. PSG and Chelsea have earned $78 million and $76 million through the semifinals, with the payouts for the final round pushing both squads over $100 million for the month-long event. The tally will help fund transfer spending for the two clubs as they set their 2025-26 squads. Advertisement It will also help offset operating losses for the teams. PSG lost $60 million during the 2023-24 season after player trading, but it was better than the $117 million and $400 million shortfalls the previous two years. Chelsea lost $89 million during the 2023-24 season if you exclude the $250 million 'profit' on the sale of Chelsea's women's team from one ownership entity to a related one. PSG ranked No. 8 in Sportico's soccer team valuations at $4.26 billion, while Chelsea was two spots lower at $3.57 billion. PSG's 2023-24 revenue was the third highest in the sport, behind only Real Madrid ($1.13 billion) and Manchester City ($901 million). The past season's revenue will get a boost from its first Champions League title on top of its two domestic crowns, which made the French club just the ninth European team to complete the 'treble,' with Barcelona and Bayern Munich both pulling it off twice. Chelsea's revenue was $590 million, and it lags PSG in all three broad buckets: broadcast, a category that includes Champions League winnings ($265 million vs. $206 million); commercial ($422 million vs. $284 million); and matchday ($184 million vs. $101 million). Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) bought control of PSG in 2011 at a roughly $100 million valuation. It owned 100% of the club until Arctos Partners bought a 12.5% stake in 2023 at a $4.3 billion valuation, per the Financial Times. Chelsea's owners—Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital—paid $3.16 billion for the team in 2022. Boehly and Arctos both own stakes in MLB's Los Angeles Dodgers.
