Messi scores twice as Miami rips Atlanta

Fort Lauderdale: Lionel Messi's instant impact in the United States continued on Tuesday (Wednesday in Manila) as he scored twice in Inter Miami's 4-0 victory over Atlanta United, firing his team into the knockout rounds of the Leagues Cup.

The Argentine World Cup-winner was handed his first start for his new club after coming off the bench and grabbing a 94th-minute winner in Friday's game against Mexican club Cruz Azul.
