No surprises here, but Lionel Messi has scored again for Inter Miami.

The World Cup-winner is absolutely loving life in the United States, banging in goals for fun since signing with the MLS side.

And it took him just six-and-a-half minutes to find the back of the net again in his third appearance for the club.

During Inter Miami's clash with Orlando, Messi made a darting run into the box but wasn't tracked by the defender.

Messi's teammate Robert Taylor then chipped the ball over the defensive line and found his number 10's feet.

With elite composure, Messi controlled the ball with his chest before rifling home a volley past the keeper.

He then wheeled away in celebration as the crowd inside Miami's DRV PNK Stadium erupted.

In all fairness to Messi, he quickly turned around and pointed directly to Taylor to thank him for picking him out with a brilliant pass.

For Messi, that's now four goals in three matches in an Inter Miami shirt.

When Sportscenter posted a clip of the goal to Twitter, fans went nuts for it.

One person commented: "This is like a grown man playing with a bunch of 10 year olds."

While another added: "Messi is the GOAT! "

Then, of course, one user had to ask: "Was Ronaldo ever this good?"

Everyone knew the 36-year-old was going to smash it on American shores – and he's certainly doing just that.
