Leagues Cup roundup: Lionel Messi leads Inter Miami past Atlas
In the sixth minute of added time, Messi squared a pass across the 6-yard box for Marcelo Weigandt to tap in for the decisive goal.
Jose Lozano had pulled Atlas level in the 80th minute, firing in a left-footed shot from close range after a scramble in front of the Inter Miami net.
Miami's first goal, in the 57th minute, was strikingly similar to the winner. Sergio Busquets played in Messi along the left side of the 6-yard box. Messi then rolled the ball toward the middle to Telasco Segovia, who nearly got his feet tangled before putting the ball in the vacated net.
Minnesota United 4, Queretaro 1
Two goals in the first 20 minutes powered the Loons to a victory over Queretaro in Saint Paul, Minn.
Bongokuhle Hlongwane opened the scoring in the 11th minute, and Kelvin Yeboah doubled the advantage by driving in a free kick from just outside the penalty area nine minutes later. Yeboah bent the ball around the outside of the Queretaro wall and inside the right post.
Jhojan Julio halved the deficit in the 67th minute before Anthony Markanich restored Minnesota United's two-goal lead in the 79th minute. Angel Zapata received his second yellow card in the 87th minute, reducing the visitors to 10 players before Tani Oluwaseyi added a goal for the Loons in second-half stoppage time.
Necaxa 3, Atlanta United 1
Tomas Badaloni scored a pair of second-half goals as Necaxa earned a victory at Atlanta.
In the 77th minute, Badaloni delivered a powerful header off Agustín Palavecino's corner kick to put Necaxa up 2-1. Badaloni added another tally in the first minute of second-half stoppage time.
Necaxa had gone in front off a 12th-minute own goal from Atlanta United goalkeeper Brad Guzan. The hosts tied the contest in the 28th minute when Alexey Miranchuk scored.
Pumas UNAM 1 (4), Orlando City 1 (3)
Adalberto Carrasquilla scored the tying goal late, then connected for the winning penalty kick as Pumas prevailed in a shootout after the clubs were tied after 90 minutes in Orlando.
After Orlando goalkeeper Pedro Gallese saved Pumas' first shootout attempt by Guillermo Martinez, the Lions' Eduard Atuesta missed by hitting the crossbar. Pumas goalkeeper Keylor Navas later saved a shot by Cesar Araujo, setting up Carrasquilla for the winner.
Rodrigo Schlegel put Orlando City ahead with a fifth-minute goal, but Carrasquilla scored the equalizer in the 80th minute on a stunning individual effort. Carrasquilla dribbled through the heart of the Lions' defense and poked a 10-yard shot past Gallese.

Trinity Rodman bursts into tears after stoppage time winner in injury return
Trinity Rodman scored in stoppage time of her first game since April to give the Washington Spirit a 2-1 victory over the Portland Thorns in the National Women's Soccer League on Sunday. Rodman was on the bench to begin the game before entering to the roar of the crowd at Audi Field in the 76th minute. Rodman had not played since 12 April because of a nagging back issue. Rodman, who won a gold medal with the United States at the Olympics last summer, buried her head in her hands and sobbed after the goal, her first for the Spirit since last Sept. 15. 'That was the hardest thing I've had to go through, with the injury and everything. So being back, especially at the home stadium with the crowd behind me, scoring a goal like that, you saw I buried it, was not going to miss it,' she said afterward. 'I'm just really happy to be back. I missed the team, I missed doing what I love, so just joy.' The Spirit (8-4-2) moved into second place in the standings with the victory as the team returned from the league's six-week summer break. The Orlando Pride hosted the Utah Royals in Sunday's late match. The Thorns (6-4-4) had won their last two matches before the break. Gift Monday put the Spirit in front in the 17th minute, taking a well-placed cross from Rosemonde Kouassi and easily putting it past Thorns goalkeeper Mackenzie Arnold. Monday has five goals this season. Although the Spirit dominated early on, Portland tied it up in first-half stoppage time on Olivia Moultrie's bolt from the top of the box.

Spirit goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury surpassed former Spirit player Tori Huster for most minutes played with the club in the second half.
