Last weekend, Lionel Messi played 90 minutes full-time for the first time in six MLS rounds. He scored a goal, had one assist, and helped his team beat Sporting KC on the road.
This coming weekend, the herons are playing in their territory, Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and Messi is expected to shine again. However, this doesn’t mean Inter Miami will have an easy match on Apr. 20. On the contrary, Messi is playing against the tricky Nashville SC.
Lionel Messi Ready To Lead Inter Miami To Another Championship
In addition to Lionel Messi, Inter Miami has many other elite players on its roster. However, in the 2024 MLS, this team was a one-man squad. The proof of this is that in Messi’s absence, Herons played terrible soccer.
He missed four MLS games this season, and Herons went 1-1-2 without him on the field. When he returned, they played 1-1 against the Colorado Lapid, in which he spent only 45 minutes on the field.
He played all 90 minutes in the CONCACAF Champions League against Monterrey, but Inter Miami lost 3-1. It was last weekend that he played the entire MLS game since Mar. 1. The game in question was against Sporting Kansas City, where Messi was by far the best player on the field.
Can Nashville somehow outperform Messi? 무료 슬롯
Nashville has no wins in its last three games. In addition, the last time the team won on the road was in the CONCACAF Champions League in February. These guys have no wins on the road yet in the 2024 MLS.
Despite all these facts, it’s not surprising that Nashville is expected to lose to Inter Miami on Apr. 20. However, this doesn’t mean Nashville doesn’t have really good players on its roster. On the contrary!
Daniel Gazdag, one of the best midfielders in MLS, plays for this team. Nashville also has a few decent forwards, especially Teal Bunbury.
With players like that, Nashville definitely has the power to make money at Inter Miami. But will they ever get a point from their trip to Florida? We’re not sure.
