After winning the Leagues Cup by a score of 4-0 over Charlotte FC on Friday night, Lionel Messi and David Beckham went out to party in Miami.
Along with Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, two other soccer superstars from Miami, their wives Antonela Roccuzzo and Victoria Beckham participated in the celebrations.
After another successful night of soccer for Inter Miami, Busquets’ wife, Elena, joined Victoria and Antonela for a photo.
As Miami went into the League Cup’s last four and now has a chance to win a trophy next weekend, Messi scored his eighth goal for Miami in just his fifth game for his new squad.
And to commemorate the event, David Grutman hosted Messi, Miami co-owner Beckham, and the rest of the group at the sushi and steakhouse restaurant Gekko Miami.

I LOVE MIAMI!!! is what Victoria commented alongside some images from the event she shared on Instagram. Last night was so much fun! I send my kisses to @DavidBeckham, @AntonelaRoccuzzo, and @Leo Messi.
Meanwhile, Grutman posted photos of himself with the rising stars of US soccer with the description “casual Friday.”
Since Messi joined the squad last month, Grutman has been spotted at multiple Miami games at the DRV PNK Stadium. He is close friends with the Beckham family.
He has witnessed firsthand Messi’s spectacular impact on the Miami team, which faces Philadelphia Union on Tuesday night for a spot in the championship.
On Friday night, Messi’s teammate’s penalty in the 12th minute gave Miami the lead over Charlotte.
Twenty minutes later, Robert Taylor doubled the advantage with his third goal for the team since Messi joined the lineup.
Adilson Malanda’s own goal in the 78th minute put the game out of Charlotte’s reach as he stretched to intercept a pass across the goal and unintentionally pushed the ball past his own goalkeeper.
After the ball had been cut back into the area, Messi scored a goal of his own to complete the scoring. He converted from close range with a powerful left-footed strike.
Busquets, who was seen taking a selfie with Grutman at the restaurant on Friday night, stated following the game that it is ‘wonderful’ to play with Messi once more.
Meanwhile, Miami’s head coach Tata Martino claimed that the team’s recent form improvements are not only due to Messi. The victory over Charlotte on Friday was Miami’s biggest in 2023.
Martino added, “It’s not just Leo; we’ve found other ways to be able to score.”
After Miami’s players defeated Charlotte FC, they went to the Japanese eatery Gekko Miami, owned by Grutman (middle), for a photo with Messi and Busquets.
