Fans lined up outside of Independence Park more than two hours before Inter Miami's Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16 clash with Cavalier SC hoping to catch a glimpse of Lionel Messi during a 2-0 victory (4-0 on aggregate) for Miami to move on to the quarterfinals where they'll face Los Angeles FC.

Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi scored goals as Inter Miami beat Cavalier SC of Jamaica 2-0 and moved into the quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup.

Inter Miami may have a 2-0 lead after their triumph in the first leg of this Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16 clash, but with the tie moving to Jamaica for the second leg against Cavalier SC, this is where they could slip up.

The best-of-three series ended the Herons' season early after they had set an MLS record with a haul of 74 points in the regular season. Messi went on to be named 2024 MLS MVP, but the more important team trophy eluded him.

Inter Miami will play the second leg of the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16 this Thursday night against Cavalier in Jamaica, and all eyes are on Lionel Messi. A week ago, Inter Miami took a crucial step toward the quarterfinals of the Concacaf Champions Cup with a 2-0 victory over Cavalier in the first leg at Chase Stadium.

In his first career visit to Jamaica, Lionel Messi scored a stoppage time goal to seal Inter Miami's 4-0 aggregate win over Cavalier FC in the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16.

Inter Miami head coach Javier Mascherano revealed the team controlled Lionel Messi's fatigue well to avoid any injury.
