On the morning of June 30, at the same time Messi was on the bench in Argentina’s 2-0 win over Peru at Copa America, Inter Miami took to the field in the MLS and won against Nashville SC 2-1, leaving all opponents far behind.

This is Inter Miami ‘s third consecutive win in the MLS tournament during the absence of famous players Messi and Suarez and midfielder Matias Rojas is busy attending the Copa America with the teams. This series of spectacular wins helped the team of former football player David Beckham as president and co-owner, dominate the top of the MLS (USA) tournament with 44 points after 21 matches.

Player who just returned from serious injury Ian Fray and veteran defender Jordi Alba scored for Inter Miami in the 40th and 44th minutes in the 2-1 win over Nashville SC. Nashville SC’s equalizer was scored by player Hany Mukhtar from the 11 m mark in the 73rd minute.

Before that, Ian Fray also scored to help Inter Miami beat Columbus Crew with a score of 2-1. This was also the score that Inter Miami started the series of matches without Messi and Suarez when they met Philadelphia Union on June 16 (also won 2-1).

Inter Miami’s impressive achievements are seen as double joy for Messi, helping this famous player feel completely secure in focusing on the Argentina team at the Copa America.

The Argentina team has won the right to enter the quarterfinals, and it is likely that Suarez and the Uruguay team will also advance. But midfielder Matias Rojas will soon return to Inter Miami because the Paraguayan team was eliminated after 2 losses, only remaining to play in the final Group D match against Costa Rica on July 3.

With the current high form of the Argentina and Uruguay national teams, Messi and Suarez could be absent from Inter Miami until the end of Copa America, when there is a high possibility that the two teams will advance to the final on July 15. Therefore, these two famous players only promise to return to play for their clubs in the Leagues Cup from the end of July.

Meanwhile, after Argentina’s win over Peru, striker Lautaro Martinez, who scored both goals, dedicated them to Messi. “Messi is fine. We hope he can participate in the next match (quarter-finals). I dedicate these goals to him, because I know how much Messi means to us,” Lautaro Martinez said.

Striker Di Maria also shared: “Messi is very good, he is recovering very well. We hope he will be ready for the next match. Today’s victory is for him.” And goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez emphasized: “It’s better for Messi to rest and be ready for the quarter-finals.”
