Another match, another record! This sums up almost the time of Lionel Messi in the Major League Soccer (MLS) while playing for Inter Miami. And a new record was made on Saturday when the club clashed with the Columbus crew at the Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland, Ohio.
Although the record does not belong to Messi, it was definitively created due to the presence of Grand Argentinian football on the field. With Messi in the starting alignment of Miami, 60,614 fans appeared at the Huntington Bank Fieldum, which is the highest attendance than a home match of the crew has ever seen.
Messi Help Columbus Crew to make the home attendance file
In fact, by anticipating a record crowd, the match was transferred to the Huntington Bank Field, which is the domestic stadium of the Cleveland Browns of the NFL. The Huntington Bank field is also two o’clock in the north of Columbus Lower.com field, but that didn’t matter for fans because a new club attendance record was created on Saturday.
It is also the greatest non-NFL attendance at the Huntington Bank Field.
He held that the crew broke its previous 31,550 record which was planned in a 2-0 victory against the Metrostars of New York / New Jersey at the Ohio Stadium during the inaugural season of MLS 1996.
A massive step 🏟️

The interesting song here is that it is the second time in as many weeks that Messi has helped an MLS club to beat his home attendance record. Last Sunday, the Chicago Fire FC played a draw without a draw at the soldier field of the stadium against Miami. The match attended a record of 62,358 fans.
The crowd of the record home, however, could not draw the crew for a victory over Miami on Saturday when I was asked 1-0 thanks to the head of the 30th minute of Benjamin Cremaschi.
The result sees Miami maintaining their record undefeated in the current MLS season. Until now, Messi’s team has won five games and pulled the other three, collecting 18 points out of eight games. They are currently third in the Eastern Conference.
