Lionel Messi is back. In his first game after returning from a hamstring injury that kept him out since Aug. 2, Messi scored his 19th goal of the season before sending a backheel assist to Luis Suárez, who scored, bringing Inter Miami to a 3-1 win over the LA Galaxy on Saturday night.

The Argentine superstar had missed numerous scoring chances in his return from injury Saturday night against the LA Galaxy, but in the match's waning minutes, Messi scored the go-ahead goal, then assisted on another to help lift Inter Miami to a 3-1 victory.

Inter Miami is set to return to MLS action this weekend as they take on the LA Galaxy, the MLS champions. The game will be played at Chase Stadium and will be the Herons' last MLS game before returning to Leagues Cup action next week.
