Lionel Messi, amendat în MLS după ce a pălmuit un adversar în timpul meciului Inter Miami - Philadelphia Union • Newsweek România

Inter Miami is on a four-match winless streak and trails Eastern Conference leader Nashville SC by seven points. Lionel Messi was fined for slapping an opponent during the match against Philadelphia Union, which ended in a 2-2 draw. The MLS disciplinary committee sanctioned Messi for hitting Quinn Sullivan in the face after a brief exchange. The referee did not issue any cards during the incident, although he sent off two other players for a separate conflict later in the game. Messi scored his first goal since his father's passing on August 8.
