Lionel Messi’s heroics earned Inter Miami a draw against Galaxy.

Lionel Messi’s last-minute equaliser earned Inter Miami a 1-1 draw against the Los Angeles Galaxy in a Major League Soccer match.

Despite the Galaxy’s domination and lead from Dejan Joveljic, a red card reduced them to ten men.

Former Barcelona star Riqui Puig shone for the Galaxy, but Miami battled with their ageing team. Gerardo Martino, Miami’s coach, hailed his team’s character following the defeat.

In other MLS play, Toronto FC, under new coach John Herdman, drew 0-0 with FC Cincinnati, while the New York Red Bulls were held goalless by Nashville.
