Messi delivers a show-stopping moment the Club World Cup, Miami and MLS needed
ATLANTA – The chants echoed throughout Mercedes-Benz Stadium as Inter Miami's superstar No. 10 walked the pitch after scoring the winner against Porto on Thursday. 'Messi! Messi! Messi!' The vast majority of the 30,000-plus fans in attendance stood and worshipped their football idol. Their arms raised, men, women and children in pink Miami shirts, Barcelona colors and Argentina national team kits bowed their heads in awe. Their hero had delivered an improbable and unprecedented win for an MLS team over a European opponent in official competition. Advertisement Lionel Messi's free kick from just outside the Porto penalty area in the 54th minute provided this Club World Cup with its first magical moment. Inter Miami defeated Porto 2-1 and gave this controversial tournament something even its most ardent detractors could celebrate. And that's precisely why FIFA president Gianni Infantino made sure to include Miami in the tournament at all costs. Miami took the tournament's host slot despite only claiming the MLS' Supporters' Shield trophy in 2024. That award is given to the team that earns the most points over the course of an MLS regular season, and while that is enough to be crowned champion in most leagues around the world, America's first division ends with a playoff format – one that Miami crashed out of in the first round last season. The Supporters' Shield has also lost its prestige, a byproduct of the postseason that can be harsh even on the strongest teams. So, Miami's inclusion in the Club World Cup came with an asterisk, but Miami's participation meant that Messi would be a must-see attraction for as long as his side stayed alive. There are plenty of global football stars in the U.S. this summer, and some massive football brands, too. But even at 37 (and turning 38 next week), and having lost the burst that made him nearly unstoppable during his peak Barcelona years, Messi can still carry a tournament on his own. FIFA needed the big European clubs to arrive on U.S. shores willing to compete this summer. And FIFA needed a moment like the one we witnessed on Thursday to justify Miami's contentious invitation. At a tournament without Cristiano Ronaldo or Lamine Yamal, and with Kylian Mbappé's availability for Real Madrid in question, the old hand of Messi was needed to hold up a competition in dire need of a spark. Messi answered the call in typical fashion on Thursday. A quiet first half in which the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner coasted in and out of midfield resulted in few highlights for Miami's No. 10. Porto took the lead when Samuel Aghehowa converted from the penalty spot in the eighth minute. At that moment, it appeared as if the football gods would not be in Messi's corner. Advertisement After all, Miami's sometimes-pitiful form in MLS play this season did little to inspire any hope that the club would remain alive after two matches. A resounding equalizer from Venezuelan international Telasco Segovia two minutes into the second half set the stage for what would be a remarkable result for Miami. When Chilean referee Cristián Marcelo Garay blew his whistle after Messi fell to ground near Porto's 18, there was no doubt what would come next. 'Whenever there's a free kick from that close, there's always a chance — especially with a player like Leo, who can strike the ball to the keeper's side or over the wall,' said Miami midfielder Sergio Busquets. 'We tried to block the keeper's vision a bit, and then the rest took care of itself.' Inside the press tribune, scores of reporters took out their phones and began to record as Messi lined up the free kick. When one has the opportunity to watch him play, there's always a hope that something memorable will occur. Nearly two years ago, Messi and Miami were in a similar situation. Miami was facing Mexican side Cruz Azul in Leagues Cup, a concocted tournament that pits MLS clubs against their regional rivals south of the U.S. border. Tied 1-1, Messi hunched over the ball after earning a foul and then proceeded to casually place his free kick the goalkeeper's right just under the cross bar for a 95th-minute winner. That moment announced his U.S. arrival. On Thursday, he let the world know that he can still change a game at any given moment. 53' ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? 🐐 Messi scores a GORGEOUS free kick goal and @InterMiami are now leading 2-1 versus @FCPorto! Watch the @FIFACWC | June 14 – July 13 | Every Game | Free | | #FIFACWC #TakeItToTheWorld #MIAFCP — DAZN Football (@DAZNFootball) June 19, 2025 'I saw that the (Porto) goalkeeper was standing slightly in the middle, being close to goal I knew it would be difficult to put it over the wall,' Messi told DAZN after the match. 'I took advantage of the opening that goalkeeper gave me. He was standing centrally and wasn't covering his post and that's where I went.' Advertisement Added Miami defender Marcelo Weigandt: 'It was extraordinary. I was standing right behind him, and when I saw the ball take off with such power, I said, 'That's it.' And well, honestly, it was a great goal. But we're already used to this kind of thing.' On the same day that Seattle Sounders lost 3-1 to Atlético Madrid, leaving the MLS club with slim hopes to advance, Miami's win was a boon for the league. 'Maybe the rest of the world doesn't really know what level the MLS is at,' Miami forward Fafa Picault said. 'Maybe (people) still see (MLS) as being at the same level it was 20 years ago, but that's no longer the case. There's a lot of quality in the league and very good teams.' 'We're very happy, obviously,' Messi said. 'The entire team worked really hard today. It was a good performance. Not only did we defend well, but throughout the first half and after the 2-1, we possessed the ball well. Again, we're happy because we ended the first match with a sour taste in our mouths. We felt we could've won that game, but of course we could've lost it too. (Al Ahly) had a penalty. It's a very important win for us and we'll celebrate it.' FIFA knew that it would take heat after giving Miami a spot in the tournament, but even the naysayers understood what was at stake. It's more than likely that Messi will not be an active player when the Club World Cup takes place four years from now. If Infantino wanted to ride the tidal wave of interest that Messi has created in the U.S., and boost a tournament that critics don't believe in, he needed Miami in the competition. He needed Messi and he needed Messi to perform. Miami remains alive heading into its final group match against Palmeiras. It'll be another massive test for a Miami side that is prone to inconsistency. The Brazilian club has looked like the top team in the group and will aim to keep Messi and Miami from extending their stay. Throughout Messi's career, a phrase has been repeated by fans and pundits as a sign of reverence, especially after a game-winning performance. Messi. Siempre Messi. (It's always Messi). On Thursday in Atlanta, Porto understood exactly what that saying means. Messi did it again. Siempre Messi. You can sign up to DAZN to watch every FIFA Club World Cup game free.

Heartbroken at Bonnaroo: Artists, fans react to abrupt cancellation, 'this was gonna be a special one'
Bonnaroo 2025 will forever go down in the books by a new name: Bummeroo. Due to severe weather and flooding at The Farm, Bonnaroo officials posted on social media at 7:40 p.m. June 13 that the remainder of the festival would be canceled. "We have put our hearts and souls into making this weekend the most special one of the year, and cannot express how crushed we are to have to make this decision," they said in their statement. "Thank you in advance for your patience, your positivity and your unfailing Bonnaroovian spirit." Around 1 p.m. on June 13, festival officials suspended shows and evacuated Centeroo, the main festival grounds. Over the next six hours, 'Roo-goers were asked to shelter in their vehicles as weather oscillated between gentle showers and thunderstorms. About an inch of rain fell on Manchester, according to the National Weather Service, causing swampy and muddy conditions in Centeroo and the surrounding campgrounds in Outeroo. After news broke about the festival's cancellation, artists on the bill started to post their reactions. "Bonnaroo cancelled :(" DJ John Summit posted on his Instagram story. "So bummed for everyone who came, this was gonna be a special one but u can't control Mother Nature.. stay safe til next time fam." Summit was scheduled to perform on June 13. " of the best festivals in the world," Glass Animals said on their story. "We were so d*** excited and had some special stuff for you... I'm sorry, be safe, and we'll be back." Rock band Goose also posted on their story. "So sorry for all those in the campground and anyone who made the effort to come see us and all the other amazing acts this weekend," they said. The band said they would be premiering a set from their second night of shows in Colorado at 9:30 p.m. CST on Youtube on June 13 for free. "This is for anyone who is heartbroken at the Bonnaroo news right now, hope to make it back to the farm sometime soon," Goose said. Music producer Of The Trees was slated to perform on June 13 at midnight. On their story, they announced a Nashville show in place of the Bonnaroo set at Cannery Hall from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m. So did EDM trio Levity, who said they will now be performing with Inzo at The Pinnacle in Nashville for a June 14 show. They said that tickets will be on sale tomorrow, and you can sign up at a link in their Instagram story. "Roo set canceled due to weather. I'm so f***ing sad," electronic artist Effin said on Instagram. He was one of the first sets canceled before the festival was officially called off. Punk band Mannequin Pussy was in a similar situation. "MPs set has been cancelled due to severe thunderstorms," they posted on Instagram. "Really truly deeply hope we get to come back next year ... we were READY TO GO." "Everyone please stay safe," said pop band Post Sex Nachos on Bonnaroo's cancellation post, a group that was slated to perform at Bonnaroo on Sunday night at the new Infinity Stage. Yes, the festival will offer refunds. In a post on X, Bonnaroo posted their updated refund policy for this year: All 1-Day Friday, Saturday and Sunday Admission Tickets purchased via Front Gate Tickets and 1-Day Friday, Saturday and Sunday Day Parking purchased via Front Gate Tickets will be refunded. All 4-Day Admission Tickets purchased via Front Gate Tickets will receive a 75% refund. All 4-Day camping accommodations purchased via Front Gate Tickets will receive a 75% refund. The festival posted on social media that all refunds will be processed in as little as 30 days to the original method of payment. Festival attendees have had mixed reactions about the cancellation, but the overall consensus is disappointment. Over 2,300 comments have flooded the cancellation post on Instagram, some expressing anger about the 75% refund the festival has offered for 4-Day passes. "100% refund. We spent hella on transportation, food, etc. 'rain or shine,'" one person said. "Literally spent THOUSANDS of dollars flying from Hawaii……. first roo and most likely my last," another person said. Other commenters disagree. "They could give 200% refund and yall still wouldn't be happy they're prioritizing your safety," a commenter wrote. "This breaks my heart for all the vendors who spent thousands of dollars to be there and are losing over two days of projected sales and their entire vending fee," said another. "Y'all have the audacity to be mad about a 75% refund… but vendors don't get refunds AT ALL in these situations. Be grateful." Some festival attendees have taken a lighter approach to the cancellation. "HOW WILL I RELEASE MY INHIBITIONS AND FEEL THE RAIN ON MY SKIN NOW," one person said, nodding to Natasha Bedingfield's "Unwritten." Bedingfield was set to perform at The Farm on June 15. "Friday the 13th hitting hard this year," one commenter wrote. And one concise comment sums it up the best: "It's ROOined :(" More: Bonnaroo 2025 canceled due to weather.
