Hat-Trick Hero Timo Werner Puts On A Master Class

When Messi Came To Town: The 19-Minute Hat Trick That Left America Bewitched

Messi was coming.

For the first and only time — barring a grizzled move to Inter Miami — the greatest footballer ever was going to play competitive matches on American soil.
