Messi’s Inter Miami clinch MLS playoff berth

Victory gave Cristian 'Kily' Gonzalez his first back-to-back wins since taking over as head coach last month, guaranteeing second-placed Miami at least a place in the wild card round, with five games left to play."I'm leaving happy.

Obviously, there's a lot to improve, but we're making progress little by little," Gonzalez said.

Messi — who had scored twice on Saturday after returning to his club side from last week's emotional Argentina send-off — was again a dangerous presence, playing a hand in both first-half goals.
