Lionel Messi India Visit Day 2: After an eventful Day 1 marked by chaos in Kolkata and a memorable fan interaction in Hyderabad, the Argentine legend now gears up for an event in Mumbai.

Lionel Messi, accompanied by Inter Miami teammates Luis Suarez and Rodrigo de Paul, had visited Kolkata and Hyderabad on Saturday, the opening day of their tour, with chaotic scenes being witnessed at the Salt Lake Stadium in the ‘City of Joy’.

Messi becomes the sixth player in MLS history to win MVP and a championship in the same season. Of the previous five, only Atlanta United's Josef Martinez in 2018 won MVP, a title and the Golden Boot as the league's scoring champion all in the same year, another hat trick of sorts that Messi achieved in 2025.

The Spain star becomes the youngest player to reach 150 appearances for Barcelona in La Liga at the tender age of 23 years and 18 days. He beats the record previously held by a certain Lionel Messi, who was 23 years and 121 days when he hit the landmark against Real Zaragoza.

MLS claims 3.6 million people watched on Apple TV and MLS Season Pass, as well as in Canada on TSN and RDS, as well as other international linear partners, including TNT and HBO Max in Mexico. That would mean north of 3.3 million viewers watched MLS Cup on Apple TV and other international linear partners.

Lionel Messi has been named the 2025 MLS MVP, the league announced on Dec. 9. He led MLS with 48 goal contributions for title-winning Inter Miami.

A sold-out crowd witnessed a 3–1 win and a worldwide audience also tuned in.

Lionel Messi is expected to arrive at the Wankhede Stadium shortly after 5.35 pm, with a full house set to get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the global icon live.
