Soccer's biggest star made his debut in Los Angeles Sunday. Major League Soccer club Inter Miami, with Lionel Messi, took on LAFC. 

It was not a winning night for the LA soccer team, Inter Miami won the match 3-1. That makes it 11 straight wins for Miami and Messi. 

"Because of Messi, we had to be here," said one soccer fan to KCAL News.
