As inevitable as gravity. All was good in the Galaxy for 90 minutes. A locked-in crowd, homeboy Beckham saluting his old fans, and Alesso providing the soundtrack to a memorable season opener in LA. On the pitch, Puig, Paintsil, Joveljic, and the rest of the squad were running circles around Miami. All it took was one moment of brilliance from Messi to tear it all down. Tiki-taka with Jordi and it was lights out in LA. Shades of his goal against Los Blancos in 2017. This time, though, there was no celebration. They’d been outclassed all match. When the whistle blew, both sides took to the tunnel dejected. Today, Miami will see it as a point rescued, and the Galaxy will still be wondering what exactly happened. There’s just no rhyme or reason to genius. 📸: lorenabarros #losangelesgalaxy #majorleaguesoccer #intermiamicf #intermiami #lionelmessi10 #riquipuig #lagalaxy #lasoccer #mlssoccer #lasports #clubelevenmag
