The match began promisingly for Inter Miami, with Paraguayan midfielder Matias Rojas scoring in the 17th minute. However, Atlanta United quickly turned the tide, with Senegalese forward Jamal Thiare netting two goals in quick succession, in the 19th and 21st minutes. Messi brought Inter Miami level in the 65th minute with a powerful header, but Atlanta United regained the lead through Polish midfielder Bartosz Slisz in the 76th minute.

Despite the efforts of Messi and his Uruguayan teammate Luis Suarez, Inter Miami were unable to secure a victory, dashing their hopes of winning their first MLS Cup. The absence of Spanish midfielder Sergio Busquets due to injury further hindered the team's chances.
