Lionel Messi scored his 900th career goal, becoming only the second man after Cristiano Ronaldo to reach the milestone. However, Inter Miami were eliminated from the CONCACAF Champions Cup after a 1-1 draw with Nashville. Messi reached 900 in 1,142 games, adding to his legendary career.

Florida: Lionel Messi created history on Wednesday by becoming only the second men's footballer to score 900 goals in official matches, reaching the landmark during Inter Miami CF's 1-1 draw against Nashville SC in the second leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup, according to ESN.

The result means Inter Miami is eliminated from the CCC on the away goals rule, as a strike by Nashville's Cristian Espinoza proved decisive when he cancelled out an early goal from Messi to send his team through.

Messi's milestone strike came in a tightly contested encounter, as Inter Miami secured progression on aggregate despite the draw.

The goal marked yet another extraordinary achievement in the Argentine superstar's decorated career, placing him among an elite group of footballers to have reached such a staggering tally in official competitions.
