With a brace against Charlotte FC, Chicago Fire brand new star Robert Lewandowski claimed the Player of the Matchday award in his third MLS game, prompting questions on how much it took for Lionel Messi to achieve his first one. Robert Lewandowski has already made an immediate splash in Major League Soccer, earning MLS Player of the Matchday honors in just his third appearance with the Chicago Fire. By securing the award so quickly into his tenure, the Polish superstar naturally invited comparisons to how long it took Lionel Messi to claim his first matchday honor with Inter Miami. Following back-to-back frustrating losses (a 3-2 defeat against Inter Miami and a 3-1 setback against NYCFC in which Lewandowski was held off the scoresheet), the Fire returned home to face Charlotte FC. Although the visitors opened the scoring in the 18th minute, the Polish legend stepped up to spearhead a quick comeback. In the 20th minute, Lewandowski netted the equalizer following a crisp team buildup, hitting a low shot from the edge of the box to log his first official MLS goal. He then completed his brace in the 68th minute, capitalizing on a sequence that originated with goalkeeper Chris Brady to coolly finish past the Charlotte keeper. Marking his home debut at Soldier Field, Lewandowski’s two-goal performance propelled the Fire to a comeback victory and three valuable points, lifting Chicago to fourth place in the standings. In the process, he became the first Fire player to win Player of the Matchday since Tom Barlow and the first Polish international to earn the honor since Karol Swiderski in 2022. Already lighting up the league. 🤩Robert Lewandowski wins Player of the Matchday pres. by @MichelobULTRA! pic.twitter.com/qiLKmklMVQ— Major League Soccer (@MLS) August 3, 2026 Messi’s road to his first Player of the Matchday honor Arriving as a marquee free-agent signing following his stint at FC Barcelona, Lewandowski needed just three matches to assert his superstar status in MLS. Lionel Messi has reigned as the undisputed face of the league since his arrival in 2023, but his journey to his first domestic matchday award took longer than expected. Messi made his official MLS debut on August 26, 2023, against the New York Red Bulls, appearing in only six league matches during the second half of that campaign due to nagging injuries. The Argentine legend made his biggest initial mark in the 2023 Leagues Cup, scoring in all seven matches to lead Inter Miami to the title over Nashville SC. Entering the 2024 MLS campaign, Messi hit the ground running following a full preseason in South Florida. He bagged a brace in a 5-0 derby victory against Orlando City early in the season, though he was narrowly edged out for the matchday recognition for that specific fixture. Messi’s first MLS Player of the Matchday award eventually arrived on April 13, 2024, following Matchday 9. He earned the accolade after registering a goal and an assist in Inter Miami’s 3-2 road victory over Sporting Kansas City in front of 72,610 fans at Arrowhead Stadium. From his debut against the Red Bulls, it took Messi 11 MLS matches to capture his first Player of the Matchday recognition. Since breaking through, however, he has cemented his league dominance by collecting a record 14 Matchday honors, including two already during the 2026 campaign.
Robert Lewandowski scored his first MLS brace with Chicago Fire, leaving many wondering how many matches it took Lionel Messi to score his brace with Inter Miami. Robert Lewandowski finally got off the mark in style for Chicago Fire, scoring his first brace in his home debut at Soldier Field — his third match in the league. It is a solid start for the Polish striker, but still slower than the pace Lionel Messi set when he first arrived in MLS, needing just two matches to record his opening double for Inter Miami. Lewandowski‘s move to Chicago was one of the biggest storylines of the summer transfer window. The Polish striker left Barcelona on a free transfer, turning down offers from clubs across Europe to join the Fire, and explained upon his introduction that he could not picture himself playing for “any Euro team” after his spell at Barcelona. After two games without a goal, the breakthrough arrived on August 2. Lewandowski scored twice in front of the Chicago faithful, becoming just the fourth player in club history to record a brace in his home debut. The two goals also marked his first MLS tally of any kind, meaning his opening goal and his first brace came in the very same match. By comparison, Messi needed far less time to open his account for Inter Miami. After coming off the bench to score a stoppage-time free kick against Cruz Azul in his very first appearance, he was handed his first start days later against Atlanta United and needed just 22 minutes to score twice.

The Argentine joined Inter Miami’s squad from Matchday 28 onward, meaning he missed the first half of the 2023 MLS season entirely and was inserted straight into the final stretch of the campaign — yet he needed no time at all to make an impact. He debuted on July 21, 2023, coming off the bench against Cruz Azul in the Leagues Cup and scoring a stoppage-time winner as Inter Miami came from behind to win 2-1. Four days later, on July 25, Messi got his first start and delivered his first brace in Miami colors, scoring twice inside the opening 22 minutes of a 4-0 win over Atlanta United. He barely slowed down from there, adding another double on August 2 against Orlando City and a third on August 6 in the penalty-shootout win over FC Dallas in the Round of 16. Later, he scored further goals in the quarterfinal win over Charlotte, the semifinal victory at Philadelphia and the final against Nashville SC, which Inter Miami won on penalties to lift the trophy. Messi finished the tournament with 10 goals in seven appearances, all before he had even made his MLS regular-season debut.
United want to grow homegrown talent rather than spendSkinner departs by mutual consent after five yearsMarc Skinner has left his role as Manchester United’s head coach by mutual consent after five years, partly because of the club’s transfer strategy. The 43-year-old is understood to have initiated the discussions that led to his departure, having felt it was the right time to leave the club. United are focusing on developing young players, rather than enter into bidding wars with some of the Women’s Super League’s bigger spenders.The former Birmingham and Orlando head coach led United to three consecutive Women’s FA Cup finals between 2023 and 2025, winning one – the club’s first major women’s trophy – in 2024 at Wembley with a 4-0 victory against Tottenham. They also reached the Women’s Champions League quarter‑finals, as well as the League Cup final, in 2025-26. Continue reading...
