Former England striker Gary Lineker was unable to contain his emotions from Lionel Messi's performance.
Lionel Messi, Getty Images"In my opinion, Lionel Messi is the greatest footballer I have ever been lucky enough to watch. Messi has brought me great joy for two decades. He does things that mere mortals cannot do. He is just a pleasure to watch. I watch every match he plays.
Even on normal days, he does three or four things in one match that I've never done in my entire career," Lineker was quoted as saying by Goal.
In the League Cup quarter-final match against Charlotte (4-0), the Argentine scored again. This is Lionel's eighth goal in five matches for Inter Miami.
