After Lionel Messi’s muscle injury in his right leg during his match against Necaxa, Inter Miami fans are just waiting for the return of their main figure to the MLS and Leagues Cup pitches, where they qualified for the quarter-finals to face Tigres UANL at Chase Stadium at 8:00pm ET, but the main question is whether the Argentine star will be fit to face that match.

Lionel Messi blows an Inter Miami fan’s mind in an unexpected encounter
It is worth noting that Javier Mascherano’s team has a vast squad where the offensive power has not been weakened thanks to the figures of Luis Suarez, Rodrigo de Paul, Telasco Segovia and even Sergio Busquets as a generator of offensive plays. However, despite these stars for the Florida team, fans will always prefer to see their power player on the field.
Lionel Messi’s return will be on an MLS matchday
While “his medical discharge will depend on his clinical evolution and response to treatment,” as the official statement adds, since it is a minor injury, it could be considered that the Argentine star will be available for the match against Tigres in the quarterfinals of the Leagues Cup. The question is whether he will be fit to play and get some playing time in the match prior to the clash against the Mexican side.
This Saturday, August 9, Inter Miami will face Orlando City, a match in which Lionel Messi is officially ruled out once the 10 days of rest have not been completed after his injury in the Leagues Cup, which occurred on August 2. Next week he should be medically cleared and if so it will be the ideal setting as the pink team will host the worst team in MLS, Los Angeles Galaxy, next Saturday 16 at Chase Stadium at 7:30 PM/ET
The matches Lionel Messi has missed due to injury
It should be remembered that it was Inter Miami’s own communications team that announced Lionel Messi’s injury: “The results confirmed a slight muscle injury in the right leg. His medical clearance will depend on his clinical evolution and response to treatment,” the club said the day after the match against the Mexican team. As a result, the Argentine star missed the games against Pumas UNAM in the Leagues Cup and against Orlando City in the MLS tournament.
However, Messi may be available for the following matches:
- August 16: Inter Miami vs. LA Galaxy | MLS – Messi could be available
- August 20: Inter Miami vs. Tigres | Leagues Cup – Messi would be available
- August 23: Inter Miami vs. DC United | MLS – Messi would be available

NLDS Game 3: Cubs’ Pete Crow-Armstrong’s critical hit gives Chicago new life
CHICAGO — Pete Crow-Armstrong is as emotional a player as there is in baseball. There’s no hiding what’s going on in his head. When there’s a tough strikeout or pop out in a big moment, it takes all of his power to hold back from slamming a bat or helmet, sometimes both.But when Crow-Armstrong comes through for the team, the energy is both equal and opposite. In Wednesday night’s 4-3 victory for the Cubs to stave off elimination against the Brewers in the best-of-five National League Division Series, Crow-Armstrong’s two-out, two-RBI single was the type of momentum-shifting hit that Chicago has been searching for this series.AdvertisementCrow-Armstrong let out a yell when he reached first. It was a scream every Cubs fan could understand, one they’ve likely experienced themselves. There was a sense of relief among a group that knew they […]
