Messi came on from the bench to plunder his rapid-fire hat-trick between the 78th and 89th minutes, showcasing his remarkable scoring ability.
Miami have won 22 games this season, drawing eight and losing just four, which highlights their dominance throughout the regular season.
This match also made history, as Miami is the first team in MLS history to have two players—Messi and Suarez—score at least 20 goals each during a regular season.
The emphatic victory ensured Miami entered the playoffs on a high note with three straight victories, culminating in a record-breaking points total.
