Messi set the fight’s only goal on a hard and slippery plane in Kansas City in 16 minus degrees, maybe not the temperatures Messi is used to playing in. The wind increased the cold factor at times to 24 minus degrees.
Messi scored unusually goals with the right foot. It was the first time the right was allowed to speak in an international club team tournament since he played with Barcelona against Manchester United in the Champions League 2019.
The team will meet in the return in Florida on Tuesday (night against Wednesday Swedish time) and the winner goes to the eighth finals.
In the cup, 27 club teams from the United States, Canada, Central America and the Caribbean make the title.
