"Lionel Messi will play for another trophy. Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets clearly aren't ready to begin their retirements, either. Tadeo Allande scored three goals Alba and Busquets, a pair of longtime Messi teammates who will retire when this season ends, had the assists on his first two and Inter Miami topped New York City FC 5-1 on Saturday night for the Eastern Conference title and a berth in the MLS Cup final."
"We have reached the final with a brotherhood of moving forward, Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano said. The power of one group can overcome many things. Mateo Silvetti scored in the 67th minute for Inter Miami, with Messi setting up that goal his 405th assist of his career for club and country, which is generally believed to be the most in soccer history."
"The Whitecaps defeated San Diego FC 3-1 in the Western Conference final later on Saturday night. This is a very satisfying result but the work continues, Allende said in Spanish. There is still work to do but happy with what we have accomplished. It'll be the first MLS final appearance for Inter Miami, who had never made it past the opening postseason round in any of its first five seasons."
