Before Messi’s arrival, his team was on a ten-game winless streak. But guess what, their stadium is back to being full of pink and black Miami jerseys again. While the Argentine legend has raised the team’s quality on the pitch, it just seems like more people in America have the desire to now watch soccer. Indeed, this will surely help the sport’s yearly viewership in the country in comparison to the NBA and NFL.
It is safe to assume that the US has an NBA fan in every second household. Taking advantage of the same, a rapper recently made a humble request to locals of Miami about Messi. Let’s dive deeper.
