Inter Miami’s victory means Messi’s magical performance. The Argentinian star showed it once again today. Miami reached the quarterfinals with a 3–1 win over Nashville thanks to Messi magic in the CONCACAF Champions Cup last 16 second leg. However, after the victory, the team received bad news. Messi has a hamstring injury.
Messi did not play full time in today’s win against Nashville. Miami coach Gerardo Martino took the team’s best star off the field after 50 minutes. At that time, it was assumed that Messi went up due to injury. At the end of the match, the idea came true.
US media “Miami Herald” reported that after the match, Miami coach Gerardo Martino confirmed Messi’s injury. Messi felt a strain in his right hamstring. The injury rules out Messi for Saturday’s Major League Soccer (MLS) game against DC United.
Explaining the removal of Messi from the field today, Martino said, ‘We didn’t want to take any risks. I was trying to understand whether he can play a little more time. But he was not taken off the field as he felt uncomfortable. I think he will not be available for Saturday’s match.’
Even if Messi does not play for the club in the next match, he will fulfill the duties of the national team. Messi will join the Argentina national team after the match against DC United. Argentina will play friendly matches against El Salvador on March 22 and Costa Rica on March 26 in Los Angeles.
