The World Cup can’t get here soon enough for Argentina and Lionel Messi, who registered their latest sensational performance in a 3-0 win over Honduras in front of an adoring partisan crowd at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

Argentina’s 35-year-old captain Messi put on a show for the fans, playing all 90 minutes and having a hand in all three goals. Messi’s seeing-eye pass to Alejandro ‘Papu’ Gomez led to the opening tally by Lautaro Martinez. And then Messi scored a penalty and executed a sublime chip over the Honduras goalkeeper for Argentina’s third.

Argentina showed why they are a legitimate threat to win it all in Qatar. Messi, Lautaro, and Papu Gomez showed fine chemistry in the first half. And the Albiceleste ended the match with Messi, Manchester City’s Julian Alvarez, and Atletico Madrid’s Angel Correa at forward, chasing hard for more goals to end the match.
