Lionel Messi is still dominating for Inter Miami, and Ray Hudson's famous piece of analysis was inspired by his second assist against Cincinnati.
In the US Open Cup semifinals, Inter Miami was behind 2-0 until Messi gave Leonardo Campana two assists late in the game to force extra time.
Messi's brilliant conversion of his spot-kick helped Inter Miami win on penalties after the game ended 3-3 after extra time.
Messi's second assist, which found Campana with a beautiful ball, was particularly brilliant.
With his analysis, Hudson, who was co-commentating for CBS, enhanced the significance of the event.
Hudson said: 'The madness of Messi arrives! Astonishing pass! He doesn't pull rabbits out of his magic hat, he pulls kangaroos!'
'But again Lionel Messi drops that kind of a beer into the shot glass at the other end of the bar in a different village!
'Astonishing in his accuracy. Look at this pass, people! He bends light to find him. He takes everything into consideration, including the planets around the sun. Messi, where the impossible becomes the easy. Where the magical becomes the predictable! Pulls it out of the fire.
Now that Inter Miami has advanced to the US Open Cup final, they will play Houston Dynamo there later this month.
Messi already assisted Inter Miami in winning their first trophy by winning the League Cup.
