Hany Mukhtar, the 2022 MLS MVP, leveled the match right out of the halftime whistle, banging a header into the back of the net off an Andy Najar cross after the German forward beat both Maxi Falcon and Hector Martinez in the box. However, Messi would respond shortly after, and with it, he scored the winner.

So on Saturday night, Nashville SC defender Jeisson Palacios made sure he would beat his teammates to the punch, setting up a diplomatic exchange of shirts as the two players walked off the field -- for halftime intermission. Miami-based journalist Franco Panizo caught the exchange on camera and posted it on X (formerly Twitter) below.
