Lionel Messi was once again the hero for his club on Thursday.
Wearing Inter Miami's iconic pink kit, the former Barcelona star scored a trademark free-kick against Porto, which proved the winner in a 2-1 victory.
The feat not only helped the Major League Soccer side edge closer to the FIFA Club World Cup Round of 16, but also made a bit of history.
The victory over the Portuguese club means Inter Miami have become the first-ever MLS side to beat a European club.
Additionally, Messi notched his 50th goal for the Herons during the game after just 61 appearances.
Comparatively, Messi hit 50 goals for Argentina after more than double the number of games (107) and 119 for Barcelona.
He sure is loving life in Florida.
