They will have to ‘continue on Wednesday, holiday in Argentina Lionel Messi fans if they want to see him in action again. Is that the ‘flea’ could return to ownership already recovered from the injury that moved him away for a couple of weeks from the playing fields -even with the Argentine National Team. The challenge merits it: it will try to help Inter Miami to break the barrier of the quarterfinals of the Concacaf Champions Leagueone of the main objectives of the season for the team led by Javier Mascheranowho did not want to confirm the presence from the start of ’10’. The first leg as a visitor against LOS ANGELES FCanother powerful of the MLS – was champion 2022 and runner -up 2023 – will be from the 0:30 on Thursdaywith television of ESPN and the platform Disney+.

Messi comes from reappearing before Philadelphia Unionrival who scored a goal for almost three minutes of entering from the substitute bank. The 37 -year -old Rosario showed a good level and noticed it well from the physical, after the muscle injury in the adductor of the left leg.

“Let’s see, I hope Leo is ready for tomorrow and can play but will realize before the start of the game”said Mascherano, prior to the trip to the other coast of the United States.

The idea is always to have the captain of the pink team, but they also do not want to force him to be a starter and resend his muscular lesion as a result of the sneakers of encounters that have been dragging. They will wait at the last moment to see if he plays as an entrance or if he is in the bank again. “The most important thing is that the game against Philadelphia ended wellthe reality is that yesterday we have returned to training, on Sunday we gave them rest so today we will finish seeing their feelings, “he added at a press conference.

“Many times with a player of his experience, the countenance tells you everything, it is not necessary to ask him too much,” he completed about the ’10’, which he has Five goals in six games He played in the season, where three games of his team were also lost.

“Always counting on Leo is a plus for any team, we are not going to deny that, we know that every time Leo is with us we are stronger, but I also have to say that when we could not count on him, the team has always taken a step forward,” he relativized.

The so -called Concachampions is one of the few titles that Messi is missing, who throughout his career won almost everything he played. Leo could not be champion in the South American sub 20for example, victim of a karma that transcends generations of the albiceleste. The other pending trophy in the Rosario Astro race is the France Cup. During his stay in Saint Germain’s parcelhe did win the other competitions he played in the Gallic country, so that national tournament is the only unfinished in his extensive activity in Europe, since in Barcelona He got all possible contests.

The remaining titles that, for now, are elusive but could win are: the US Open Cup and the Major League Soccer.

Another that is also in doubt for the next game is Ustari, who came out with a nuisance against Philadelphia. In this case, Mascherano indicated that the goalkeeper is already better, although he preferred not to give clues about who will be under sticks: “Oscar is fine but I’m not going to say who is going to play tomorrow.”
