The head coach of "Inter Miami," Javier Mascherano, commented on the injury Lionel Messi sustained during the match against the "Necaxa" team in the League Cup. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The 38-year-old forward was forced to leave the field in the 11th minute of the match. The game ended in a 2:2 draw at the end of regular time.
In the penalty shootout, "Inter Miami" won 5:4. At the press conference, Mascherano emphasized that Messi felt discomfort in the tendons at the back of his knee.
For now, we need to wait for tomorrow's test results to determine how serious the injury is. His issue was more related to discomfort than pain.
This injury may not be serious. It is worth noting that "Inter Miami" will face the "Pumas" team on August 7 in the third round of the League Cup group stage.
The team is currently closely monitoring Messi's condition, and official information regarding his health will be released after the tests.
