Inter Miami drew their soccer match against Orlando City in the MLS. The game ended in a 1-1 draw for the team as their fabled ex-Barca trio missed the game due to various issues. The team struggled to find their groove, with the match ending in a draw. The club will play Houston Dynamo in the US Open Cup final as the team looks to win yet another trophy. But, whether their superstar Lionel Messi will play or not is still in doubt. However, the Inter Miami coach has now provided an update on La Pulga. 

Inter Miami won the Leagues Cup earlier and it was Messi’s first trophy with the Florida-based club. But his involvement in the upcoming final is doubtful because of a slight injury. Therefore, coach Tata Martino detailed the participation of the players despite being unsure about the proceedings. 

Tata Martino gives Lionel Messi injury update!

The game between Houston Dynamo would be crucial as the club looks to claim their second trophy. They are having a sensational time after the trio arrived, and the Barcelona players are proving to be a difference. Hence, Martino gave an injury update related to Messi, as he suffers from a scar tissue problem. Martino stated, “Let’s go day by day, I’ll talk to him and see what he says.” With the Argentinean determined to make an impact, it could be possible for him to play the next match. 

Meanwhile, Jordi Alba missed the game with a muscle injury while the boss gave Sergio Busquets a rest. Hopefully, the three players will play the final in a bid to claim trophies for Inter Miami. Without them, the squad looks in trouble to create goal-scoring opportunities for the team. Messi has proved to be the difference for David Beckham’s side as he scored 11 goals and produced five assists.

Messi hopes to get back to full fitness in a bid to create a difference for the club. But things won’t be comfortable. Houston Dynamo is a solid opposition. 

Can Miami defeat the Houston Dynamo?

The club lies in fourth place in the Western Conference of the MLS. The team won the MLS Cup twice back in 2006 and 2007. Unlike Inter Miami, they have lifted the US Open Cup before in 2018. With that experience under the team’s belt, Dynamo remains a tricky side for Messi and Co to conquer. 

It’s complex when a team plays the cup final, especially when you play for Inter Miami. With Messi’s arrival, the Miami-based franchise attracted eyeballs, and fans wanted their team to win the trophy. Can Lionel Messi inspire Inter Miami to another medal?
