“goats meet,” a fourth fan said.

“Two legends,” a fifth fan wrote.

“The goat and Messi,” a sixth fan commented.

After being swatted away by the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX, Mahomes and the Chiefs are eager to bounce back and return to the top of the league. The three-time Super Bowl champion is already working to return in his best shape for 2025 and lead Kansas City to another win.

As for the Argentinean icon, he’s led Miami to four wins and one draw in the first five games of the 2025 MLS season. Messi is yet to win his first MLS Cup and the season before a World Cup year could be a good opportunity to do so.
