After a fairy tale start to his Inter Miami career, Lionel Messi’s Major League Soccer (MLS) season ended in a 1-0 defeat on the road to Charlotte FC at Bank of America Stadium on Saturday.
Miami had already failed to make the playoffs but victory for Charlotte, courtesy of Kerwin Vargas’ strike in the 13th minute, meant the second-year franchise reached the playoffs for the first time. Upon Messi’s arrival in July, Miami embarked on a club-record 12-game unbeaten streak and won its first trophy, the Leagues Cup, but ended the campaign without a win in seven, with Messi missing some of those games through injury.
“Out of the three tournaments, one was won by Inter Miami. If, at the time of signing, you had told me that we were going to win one of the three tournaments, I would have certainly signed with my eyes closed.” According to the MLS, 66,101 spectators attended the match, many no doubt there to watch Messi, a seven-time Ballon d’Or winner and one of the best to have ever played the game. The Argentine captained Miami and played the entire match.
