The highly anticipated MLS Cup final is set to kick off on December 7, with Lionel Messi's Inter Miami taking on the Vancouver Whitecaps at Chase Stadium in Florida. Both teams are riding high on confidence after dominating performances in their respective conference finals. Inter Miami's 5-1 thrashing of New York City FC secured their first-ever Eastern Conference crown, with Messi's stellar form a major factor in their success. The Whitecaps, meanwhile, outplayed San Diego FC 3-1 in the Western Conference Final, showcasing their resilience and lightning-fast counterattacks. The match will also be a reunion of sorts for Messi and Thomas Müller, who have clashed in several high-profile European matches, including the 2014 World Cup final. This adds an extra layer of history and anticipation to the championship match. Despite their impressive run, the Whitecaps have struggled to make a deep playoff push in recent years, with their furthest advance being the quarterfinals in 2015 and 2017. However, they'll be looking to cause an upset against Inter Miami, who are riding a wave of momentum into the final. For fans in India, the match will be available to stream for free on Apple TV+, but will not be broadcast on TV. The action gets underway at 1:00 AM IST on December 7.
