Messi didn't bring shooting boots on the night of the Golden Ball! Replicating Lautaro's embarrassing scene, the ball drought lasted for 75 days

In the Ballon d'Or memorial match against New York City, Messi failed to score, and even had an embarrassing scene of a left-footed shot hitting the right foot. After a clean sheet at New York City, Messi's club goal drought has lasted for 75 days.

Before the start of the game, Inter Miami held a celebration ceremony for Messi, who walked onto the pitch with the Ballon d'Or in his hand, and in his speech, Messi said that after winning the first title in team history this season, he will continue to challenge for the title next season.

Although Messi has not played since the MLS regular season finale. In the 10th minute of the game, Busquets, Alba, and Gomez made a series of wonderful passes, and Messi cleverly turned to get rid of two defenders and fired a low left-footed shot, but it was blocked by the goalkeeper flying with one hand.

Subsequently, Messi also made a mistake, and the left-footed volley hit the right foot. At the World Cup, Lautaro used to do the same thing.

However, it was New York City that scored first. In the 43rd minute of the game, Magno shook off the defender and scored with a low left-footed shot. Just three minutes into the second half, the unmarked Julián Fernandez swept home with a sweep.

After the score was down, Messi played harder, and his low left-footed shot from the right rib of the penalty area was quite threatening. However, after receiving Alba's return pass, Messi shot high, which was his second shot high in the campaign.

In the 87th minute, Messi's low right-footed shot from the defender in front of the penalty area was slightly wide. In the end, Messi failed to break through New York City's goal in the Ballon d'Or memorial match, extending the club's goal drought to 75 days.

Messi's last goal came against Peru on 18 October, when he scored twice for the Argentine national team, while Messi's last goal for the club came on 27 August, when he scored his first MLS goal against New York City.

After this game, Messi will return to the national team to participate in the two key battles of the World Cup qualifiers against Uruguay and Brazil, and whether he can recover in time is a test for Messi.
