Lionel Messi failed to continue in the Inter Miami vs Toronto FC match. This match marked the Argentine's return in a very important match, where many expected the player to put himself in an important position and surprise those present. However, it seems that the player's injury is a little more serious than it seems and after the first 40 minutes of the match, Messi was not able to continue in the match.
Gerardo Martino decided that it was time for Messi to return to the starting lineup, despite the discomfort in the last few games, where he did not participate. However, things did not go as expected and the Inter Miami coach was one of those who left the game in the first minutes of play. Apparently, Messi resented it and asked for a change.
The Argentine left the captain's ribbon to his teammate DeAndre Yedlin and suddenly left the pitch. Robert Taylor took his place. However, it was not just Messi who decided to leave the game. Jordi Alba left the playing field due to an apparent physical discomfort. Noah Allen entered in place of the Spaniard. Both the Argentine and the Spanish were the two players who were generating the most opportunities in the match.
For now, we have to wait for what the Inter Miami medical team says. However, it is time for the team to place itself in an important way in the following games, regardless of whether Messi is there or not. It seems that Messi's injury is not serious, however, considering the player's age, taking risks at this time can be very complicated. When Messi asked for the change, there was obvious concern on coach Gerardo Martino's face. Inter Miami is currently in second-to-last place in its conference, and must improve if they want to make their way to the playoffs.
