Atlanta United FC finished a whopping 34 points behind Lionel Messi and star-studded Inter Miami CF during the regular season.

Now, the Five Stripes have a shot at pulling off a stunning upset of the best team in Major League Soccer.

Xande Silva scored with about a minute to go in stoppage time shortly after a goal by Messi was waved off by a clear offside, giving ninth-seeded United a 2-1 victory over Miami on Saturday night to even the best-of-three first-round MLS playoff series at one game apiece.
