Messi's multi-goal streak ends as Cincinnati beats Miami 3-0
Lionel Messi's Major League Soccer-record streak of multi-goal games ended at five on Wednesday as his Inter Miami squad was blanked 3-0 at FC Cincinnati.
The 38-year-old Argentine star forward had scored a brace, two goals, in five consecutive matches for Miami, giving him 16 goals on the season as Inter managed four wins and a draw in the run.
Not since 2012 when he played for Barcelona had Messi netted a brace or more in five consecutive matches.
But Cincinnati kept Miami to only two shots on goal in the contest.
US 20-year-old midfielder Gerardo Valenzuela opened the scoring for Cincinnati in the 16th minute.
Brazilian striker Evander followed with a goal in the 50th minute and struck again in the 70th to provide all the scoring the hosts needed.
Miami fell to 11-4 with five drawn for 38 points, fifth in the Eastern Conference and eight points adrift of first-place Philadelphia, the overall MLS leader which beat Montreal to stay one point ahead of Cincinnati in the overall MLS standings.
Inter Miami has three games in hand on both clubs but would need to win them all to overtake their rivals for the overall league lead.
