Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami and Thomas Muller’s Vancouver Whitecaps are set for an MLS Cup final described as “perfect” by both stars. This Saturday’s match marks their 11th career meeting, with Muller holding a 7-3 advantage. Both clubs aim to secure their first-ever MLS Cup trophy in this highly anticipated showdown.
Messi concludes a dominant 2025 MLS season with 56 goal contributions in 33 appearances. Muller, since joining Vancouver from Bayern Munich, has made an immediate impact with 14 goal contributions. Despite past Whitecaps victories over Miami, Inter Miami enters the final as Opta’s favorites.
