LAFC goalkeeper John McCarthy leaves Selena Gomez stunned with outrageous save to deny Lionel Messi a goal-scoring opportunity

Los Angeles FC goalkeeper John McCarthy wowed in front of a star-studded crowd at BMO Stadium with an incredible save in the first-half Sunday night. 

LAFC hosted Inter Miami in MLS Sunday night as Lionel Messi looked to boost their playoff hopes.

The stars turned out in the City of Angels to get a glimpse of the World Cup winner in action but McCarthy denied them the chance of getting a glimpse of Messi finding the back of the net.

Towards the end of the first half with Miami already in a 1-0 lead thanks to Facundo Farias’ opener, McCarthy pulled off a sensational save to prevent Messi from doubling the lead.

The Argentine was through on goal thanks to a sublime pass from Diego Gomez with only McCarthy standing between him and goal.

Messi fired off a shot from his magical left foot but the LAFC shotstopper sensationally managed to block the strike from close range.

It appeared the entirety of the supporters gathered at BMO Stadium had thought there was no doubt that Messi had added another goal to his tally, including Selena Gomez.

The actress and songstress, who released her new single Single Soon last week, looked shocked as the Apple TV broadcast.

Gomez couldn’t believe what she was seeing as she sat in the stands with her jaw left hanging and eyes wide.

However, McCarthy didn’t have much luck in the second half as Messi’s former Barcelona teammate Jordi Alba did manage to fire a shot past the goalkeeper to double the Herons’ lead.

Gomez joined a crowd of A-Listers as Messi hit Hollywood for the first time since his Inter Miami move in mid-July.

Prince Harry headlined the list of notable names as he was spotted laughing with LAFC co-owner and actor Will Ferrell, while Leonardo DiCaprio was also spotted in a suite.

However, Gomez opted to embrace the lively atmosphere with the true supporters as she sat in the stands with the 3252 – LAFC Supporter’s section.
