An Aymeric Laporte goal from inside his own half gave Al-Nassr a 3-0 lead against Inter Miami after just 12 minutes. Laporte used to play defense for Manchester City.

The game was supposed to be between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, but both players were hurt before it started, so they couldn’t play. Longtime foe Ronaldo has said that the Saudi League is better since Messi moved to the MLS, and he may have been right.
Al-Hilal beat Inter Miami 4–3, and then Otavio, Talisca, and Laporte scored three goals in the first 12 minutes against Al-Nassr, putting them down 3-0. That being said, Laporte’s goal was the best. He took a shot from inside his own half that caught Inter Miami’s goalie off guard.
The Spanish player, who won the Premier League, then grabbed his ears and was surrounded by his Al-Nassr teammates for ending the game. Ronaldo couldn’t hold back his excitement as he jumped to his feet to celebrate inside the stadium in a plush box.A fan on X, which used to be called Twitter, said, “If Messi was playing, Laporte would never have scored that goal. Messi has too much of an effect on the field, and those guys just act differently when the goat is playing.” Another person said, “Ronaldo and Messi aren’t playing for Al Nassr and Inter Miami, but look at the goal Laporte scored…” Ronaldo was right when he said that the Saudi League was better.
When Ronaldo heard that Messi was moving to the United States last summer, he said, “The Saudi league is better than MLS.” Now every player is coming here. More big names will come to Saudi Arabia in a year.
As part of its preseason, Inter Miami went to the Middle East. The 2024 MLS season starts later this month. Even though they had Messi, Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, and Luis Suarez on their team, they will leave Saudi Arabia with two bad results.But fans in the United States will still have high hopes for Inter Miami, as co-owner David Beckham wants his team to become the best in the Major League Soccer. Messi, Busquets, and Alba, who used to play for Barcelona, have already brought success to Florida. Last season, Inter Miami won the Leagues Cup.
“Tonight was a very special night, I think for, not just for our club, [but] for our fans, players, our families, and all of our staff that have been involved in this journey with us,” Beckham said after the victory.
“But it wasn’t simple.” The game tonight was really tough. Nashville put up a really strong fight. It came down to the wire, and I think they did great as a club, as a group, and as players. It was a tough game. But tonight was just our night.”
