Then the Messi show began. The 2022 World Champion converted a free-kick into the near corner (40th). Montreal's Luca Petrasso confused his goalkeeper, inadvertently assisting with the goal.

After the restart, the exceptional talent Messi dribbled past three opponents in the box and completed his brace (52nd).

In the closing stages, Messi set up Luis Suarez's goal (80th). He then chipped the ball in for a hat-trick (83rd) and crowned his performance with another free-kick goal in stoppage time (90th+6).

"That's exactly what it means to have Messi in the team," said goal-scorer Casemiro after the match on "Apple TV". "We have to enjoy these moments, because he is a human, a player who is making history."
