Inter Miami CF were humiliated at the start of the MLS season — and it pushed Lionel Messi over the edge. It took Luis Suarez to step in.
A nightmare start to the campaign for Inter Miami. On the pitch at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, the Floridians were swept aside 3-0 by Los Angeles FC in a stadium in full voice. Inspired by an outstanding Heung-min Son, the Californians dominated from start to finish.
Messi Loses His Cool After Heavy Defeat
Beyond the scoreline, it was Messi’s behavior that drew attention. Largely invisible throughout the match, “La Pulga” ended the night in a furious mood.
Footage captured in the corridors shows the Argentine attempting to confront the referee after the final whistle. Clearly enraged, he heads toward the officials’ dressing room before being held back at the last second by Luis Suárez. The Uruguayan forward literally has to push him away to prevent the situation from escalating.
The clip, filmed on a phone, is already spreading rapidly across social media. Immense frustration, a failed start to the season, and rising tension: in Miami, the pressure around Messi is already building.
