Yo, it's SF DOOM on the mic, bringing you the illest recap of a soccer showdown that had the whole city vibing. If you missed it, buckle up. This tale's got more twists than a dope rhyme. Let's set the stage: Nashville SC, the crew that many wrote off, squaring up against the glitzy powerhouses of Inter Miami. And the lead act for Miami? None other than the GOAT, Lionel Messi. The masses had their bets set – surely, the underdogs wouldn’t stand a chance against such global royalty. But, like in any classic hip-hop battle, never underestimate the underdog with a flow and heart. The energy at the stadium? Straight fire . When Messi stepped on our turf, the boos hit harder than a bass drop. Not out of disrespect – the man’s a legend – but because Nashville ain’t about to be overshadowed on home ground. And when our very own MVP, Hany Mukhtar made his entrance? The stadium echoed with shouts of praise, a true testament to the love we've got for our squad. No denying, Messi hit us with that lyrical flow of his, netting one for Miami. Coach Gary Smith said it best, “ The goal he scored was incredible...I don't know too many teams who have limited Messi to 2 shots ” Then, our brother Fafa Picault, came through, laying it down with a header that spoke volumes, tying it up. The drama wasn’t over. Penalties. Yo, 11 rounds of pure suspense. The kind that keeps you at the edge, heart pounding, waiting for the beat drop. Miami's keeper sealed their chapter, but we walked out with heads high. Here's the kicker: this ain't a story of defeat. Nah, it’s about rising, about resilience, about staking a claim. From overlooked to center stage, Nashville's soccer journey is turning heads. So to every die-hard NSC fan, the saga continues. Wear that jersey with pride. Keep that energy up. ‘Cause while Nashville's rhythms set the world dancing, our soccer moves are about to become legendary. Before I sign off, let's drop some bars on what's next for the NSC fam. This newfound electricity, this raw, pulsing beat we’ve felt? It's only the pre-chorus. We've set our sights on the grand prize, the MLS Cup. They've seen us rally, they've felt our vibe, and best believe, the second half of the season will be a straight-up crescendo. When the dust settles and the turntables stop, NSC aims to be the crew holding that trophy high. To every NSC soldier out there: tighten those laces, prep those chants, 'cause we're on a mission. This city, this team, this dream - it’s all gold . Let’s get it. 🎤⚽ #EveryoneN. DOOM OUT
