After his injury, will Lionel Messi be able to play in the US Open Cup final?

Lionel Messi and Inter Miami had a difficult day against Toronto FC. Curiously, the complexity of the match had nothing to do with the result, because Miami comfortably won 4-0 against the Canadian club. However, the Argentine star left the game after the first 30 minutes after feeling overloaded and alarms went off in the Florida club. Therefore, the question about Messi's presence in the final US Open Cup begins to arise.

“In principle, it is a scar from an old injury that bothers him. In the images with which he came from the Argentine team (he played against Ecuador in the Qualifiers) he did not have a muscle injury. We preserve him because of that same scar and I think it is still the same, but I am saying it more because of a conversation with him. "We have to wait, maybe be more cautious than what I'm saying and determine in the coming days how we continue," said the Inter Miami coach.

Finally, the coach of the Miami team stressed the need for them to have played to accumulate shooting after several days with inactivity, but he never guaranteed their presence against Houston Dynamo: “It is clear that they had to have 45 or 60 minutes of football to reach the final in good rhythm. In any case, I am cautious about what may happen, I am not decisive. After talking to them, I don't have the same pessimism that I had when I had to take them out.”

What will happen to Lionel Messi?

Inter Miami has the final of the US Open Cup against the Houston Dynamo next Wednesday. The club led by Beckham has the opportunity to achieve a double in just one month, but time is against them, since Messi had to be substituted due to physical problems and as a precaution to reserve him for the big duel in next week.
