Inter Miami continued with their winning ways as they clinched yet another triumph in the Leagues Cup. Once again, their star player, Lionel Messi, basked in the spotlight. While the efforts of the Herons were immaculate, it may just bee the good luck charm they received before the match from Tom Brady, that helped them pull through.
Meanwhile, Brady was in the headlines after becoming a minority investor in EFL side Birmingham City. It seems that after enjoying a remarkable career in American football, the ex-NFL star is taking baby steps into the world of soccer.
