It wasn’t the game many expected it to be but both Inter Miami and Lionel Messi drew blank against Nashville. Despite having a higher possession, they couldn’t get the expected result. As for Messi, even after playing from the start till hearing the referee’s whistle at the end, he could not find back at the net.

Perhaps it wasn’t their day as they agreed to just take a point at home. For now, they are sitting in 14th place with just 22 points. Today’s result will surely derail their chances of pushing for the play-offs. Although they are still unbeaten since Messi’s arrival, the outcome is definitely a disappointing one. Certainly, Tata Martino’s side will reflect on the game and try to bounce back in the next fixture.
