Lionel Messi Named MLS Player of the Month for May

Last Saturday, Messi put on a masterclass in a 5-1 rout of Eastern Conference contender, the Columbus Crew, contributing to every Inter Miami goal as he struck twice and added three assists. He became just the second player in league history to record multiple games with at least five goal contributions after a one goal and five assist performance last season vs. the New York Red Bulls. He’s also only the third player in MLS history to score two goals and notch three assists in a single game.
