Chicago Fire 1-1 Inter Miami: Lewandowski stunner vs Messi assist in front of record crowd (highlights)

A record-breaking crowd of 63,094 packed Soldier Field to witness a showdown between two of the greatest strikers of their generation, and they were treated to a 1-1 draw between Chicago Fire and Inter Miami. Robert Lewandowski stole the headlines early with a stunning volley on 10 minutes, latching onto Andrew Gutman's cross from the left to fire past Dayne St. Clair. Messi, meanwhile, was at the heart of everything Inter Miami created. The Argentine forced a save from Chris Brady on 23 minutes and again on 41 minutes, but it was his assist that proved decisive. Two minutes after the break, Messi delivered a corner that Casemiro headed home to level the scores, marking the Brazilian's third goal in three consecutive matches. Inter Miami dominated possession with 61.7% and had 12 shots, but Chicago's goalkeeper Brady was in inspired form, making six saves to preserve a point for the Fire. The result leaves Inter Miami in second place in the Eastern Conference on 44 points, seven behind leaders Nashville, while Chicago remain fourth on 39. Can Inter Miami close the gap on Sunday?
