Welcome to the MLeSsi Era. The 🐐 just doing 🐐 things...

cruz azul had so many opportunities they should have won it by a few goals...and they are last in mexico after three losses in three games...messi and martinez werent defending and busquets couldnt run much and had a huge giveway which should have turned into a goal...obviously as far as passing the ball hes still very good...they conceded the equalizer 11 minutes after the three subbed in and then needed a last minute free kick from messi...its gonna look good offensively but nothing points to them being able to fix it defensively...callender is bad miller didnt close down on the goal then later went down and subbed out and it looks like you will have 2-3 players who will be waiting the team to win back the ball or who wont have the legs to defend
Robbie Robinson? MLeSsi match nerves and/or heatstroke sickness? Announcing... clean-up on IMCF aisle... left pitch touchline. Hate to have slid tackled into that!

Lots of images of Messi et al bonding with IMCF players during practice the past week. I note the shenanigans between Messi and Martinez. Messi smiling, laughing, thinking... 'C'mon dude don't make it too easy for papzz, asshole! Later, together, actually celebrating the dream of a storybook ending to an MLS debut. My spidey sense tells me lots to expect from the chemistry between these two. BTW, I have never bothered to notice when watching him, does anyone know if there is an instance/footage, other than perhaps WC26, of Messi ever scoring and lapping the pitch in celebration to his family, wife and kids, for their hugs and kisses? Was that a La Liga/Ligue 1/MLS league match first for him?

I'm in Florida now. I just paid more for one bloody game to take my nephew to see Messi tonight, than my TFC season membership.

I whish you and your nephew to see a great game in which Messi will have a great evolution, and at least 2 goals (or 1 goal and a major assist) by him.
2 goals and 2 assists. Some stars make everyone on the team better and some like ours don't. His vision is one of a kind. Great atmosphere, but everything is pricey. Parking at the stadium started at $50.
IMCF's rising tide lifts all boats. Teammates play better when playing for/with the GOAT. The DRV PNK MLeSsi experience, crossed off the bucket list, congratulations. Envious, memory for a lifetime.
Messi... Jedi Master of The Force?

Messi looks so happy at Miami when you look at him at PSG, their ultras are a disgrace, no appreciation for what they had.
Let's see if Messi and friends can run the table, if they get competitive and make any decent sort of run you could be looking at Super Bowl level numbers.
Clarification, update... Mjolnir! or Stormbreaker? ...

I thought the Thor pic was the TFC home kit for a brief second.
hahaha… that must have been the inspiration for the kit.
The real test for the Messi effect will be if they play America. Watching them rip St. Louis apart the other night it was clear they're on a different level to any MLS club right now. Just a precise, front-foot, top-level club in terms of performance.
That'll be interesting. I think against a team that good, we'll see him have a tougher time, because he needs supporting pieces in a scenario like that.
As usual, Pablo Maurer with the interesting take that also includes NASL / Pele information
Behind the paywall - how do shirt swaps happen

Messi plays like he's in his backyard with slippers on. Doesn't need to put much effort. Miami is so lucky to have him.

Believe in one of Miami’s two LC matches, IIRC against ATLUTD and not Cruz Azul , there is post-game footage on the internets of another player following him, a shirt exchange already happened, into the tunnel to his locker-room entrance when a team assistant gives Messi a ‘second’ shirt to hand the player.
Also, a similar ‘MLS’ story; that’s not paywalled…

Given that Suarez himself said yesterday that Miami doesn't have the money he wants, and given they already have three DPs, this feels like speculative fishing.
He figures the cap is going to change somehow -- although I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but many older owners are fighting major changes -- and that when that happens, in the off season, they can sign Suarez. But none of that has happened yet, and no one voids a contract on a possibility.

Are we able to ask- how much you paid and what the process was? I was told from my Miami Season's rep that tickets are non transferable - did you have to use the original ticket holder's login and password? or was it a hard copy ticket?
thanks.
I purchased through Ticketmaster. Cost was approximately $178 US each for 2 ($490 CAN.) including fees. These were the cheapest for that game. I was told if you wait just before kick off the prices go down on stub hub. But I wasn't willing to take the chance. No hard copy, ticket was on my phone.
Another spectacular goal by Messi in the opening minutes in the round of 32 match vs. Orlando City!
And then Orlando comes back
&
Messi does a petulant kick of a leg to get a deserved yellow card
They keep talking about "Taylor was playing non-league football"
He played 1 game on loan and the rest in his home country of Finland.
It pains me to say it, but Messi should have already fouled, carded, himself out of this match and IMCF should be playing with ten.
Yeah, they sure do love their hyperbole.
The officiating here is highly suspect.
Well one thing is for sure. Inter Miami is going to quickly rise up the table a bit.
TFC definitely going to get that dead last spot.
I would argue Finland is lower than non-league football.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
