Lionel Messi's time with Inter Miami FC has been eventful for several reasons, but their Leagues Cup win might be his best night yet with the new club.

Inter Miami lifted the trophy after beating Nashville FC on Sunday, marking a special moment for the players and team owner David Beckham.

The team's celebrations started on the pitch and continued inside the locker room with champagne. In a viral video which found its way to Twitter, we can see the players vibing to Gunna's "Fukumean" on Edison Azcona's Instagram live. We can also see Leo Messi sitting in the back, swiping away on his phone while the others danced and sang.

The video caption caught the rapper's attention. It read:

“They got Messi listening to Gunna in the locker room.”

The rapper reposted the clip on his Instagram Story, acknowledging the football player with a bunch of trophy emojis

Messi scored the opener in the final against Nashville FC in the 23rd minute before Fafa Picault equalised in the 57th minute. Later, Inter Miami won the match on penalties, 10-9, with Messi converting his spot-kick. The former Barcelona player has scored 10 goals in seven matches for Inter Miami.

Since Messi's arrival in Miami, the team's matches have been attended by several A-List celebrities.
