The 2026 regular MLS season is now over and likely to the surprise of very few, Lionel Messi was one of the top performers in the league.

Inter Miami ended the normal campaign with a 3-3 draw against Charlotte, leaving them second in the Eastern Conference.

Following the conclusion of the regular season, the MLS have now shared the players with the most goal contributions in 2026.

Messi topped the list by some distance with a combined 43 goals and assists for his side, 12 more than second place.

Fans have now been reacting to the Argentine dominating the goal contribution table, including one who wrote: “MVP”, followed by a goat emoji.

A second responded: “Messi is always in a class of his own. The GOAT.”

Another commented: “The real GOAT,” with a fourth writing: “Greatest of all time.”

A fifth stated: “No one is even close,” while another tweeted: “Just look at the gap between Leo Messi and the rest. He’s crazy man!”

Inter Miami will now turn their attention to the postseason, where they are scheduled to face Columbus Crew in the first round on November 21 before a second meeting on November 27.

Miami are the current holders of the MLS Cup, having won the title for the first time last year after beating the Vancouver Whitecaps in the showpiece.
