Inter Miami fell to Montreal; However, what has become a trend in recent days is Lionel Messi’s unexpected reaction at the end of the match.
Gerardo Martino explained that he made the decision that Lionel Messi will not play in the match against Montreal where the latter beat Las Garzas 3-2.
“We talked about it more or less a week ago and we agreed that this was the game in which I had to rest, thinking about this Wednesday’s rematch for the round of 16 of the Concachampions,” said Martino.

For this reason, the Argentine enjoyed the meeting from the box, accompanied by his wife Antonela Roccuzzo. However, at the end of the match he decided to go down to the locker room area to greet and support his teammates.
His surprise was that, upon leaving, when he started to return home, he found a huge line waiting for him in the hallways of Chase Stadium. The fact is that, not being able to change shirts on the pitch, because he did not play, the visiting footballers waited hopefully for his selfie. And, despite the blow from the fall, Lio, with the smile that characterizes him, took the time to greet and take selfies with each of his opponents.
One of them, Mathieu Choinière, surprised him and appeared with a shirt from the Argentine team, in its world champion version in Qatar 2022.
La Pulga smiled and left his signature on a souvenir that the Canadian team will never forget. CF Montreal won thanks to goals from Fernando Álvarez, Matías Cóccaro and Ibrahim Sunusi. The aforementioned Campana and Jordi Alba scored for the pink team, which has seven points in the competition, the result of two victories and a draw.
