Soccer fans in Baltimore got excited Thursday.

Major League Soccer announced D.C. United and Inter Miami CF will play at the Ravens’ M&T Bank Stadium on March 7, 2026. 38-year-old Lionel Messi will headline the game for Miami in what will be his fourth season with the club.

D.C. United said in a press release it hopes to expand soccer viewership across the DMV and in Baltimore.

“M&T Bank Stadium gives us the opportunity to welcome even more supporters and share what makes D.C. United special with our neighbors to the north,” said Danita Johnson, D.C. United president of business operations. “Our fans drive everything we do, and we’re looking forward to creating another memorable experience for them during a landmark season.”

Perhaps the greatest soccer player ever, Messi will be in his 23rd season and currently leads MLS in goals (29) and assists (19).

Inter Miami currently awaits a conference semifinals matchup against Cincinnati and claimed the Leagues Cup in Messi’s 2023 debut season with the club.
