Anders Dreyer scored twice for San Diego FC, but Lionel Messi netted his 101st goal for Inter Miami CF in a 2-2 MLS draw on Sunday night. The result marked Inter Miami's fourth consecutive draw, with new manager Kily González overseeing his first league game in charge. Messi opened the scoring in the 24th minute, but San Diego took a 1-0 lead in the 12th through Dreyer.

Luis Suárez put Miami ahead in the 74th, only for Dreyer to equalize eight minutes later. Miami sits third in the Eastern Conference with a 12-4-10 record and 46 points. FIFA announced the final phase of the 2027 FIFA Women's Champions Cup will be played at Inter Miami's Nu Stadium in January, with Chief Football Officer Jill Ellis citing the city's passion for the sport following the World Cup.

Miami travels to face the Columbus Crew next Sunday, while San Diego visits Austin FC on Saturday. ESPN writer Lizzy Becherano contributed to the report.
