Inter Miami's head coach Javier Mascherano commented on Lionel Messi and his condition. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The 38-year-old footballer returned to the field after injury and came on from the bench at the beginning of the second half of today's match against Los Angeles Galaxy. In the 84th minute, the Argentine scored the winning goal, and in the 89th minute, he assisted Luis Suarez.
The final score of the game was 3:1. Messi played until the end of the match but quickly headed to the locker room at the very end.
Reports about his new injury spread in the media. At a press conference, Mascherano said: "How does Messi himself feel?
I haven't seen him yet after the game ended. We will find out after he undergoes tests tomorrow.
He always wants to be on the field, which is why he wanted to play in the previous match against Orlando City as well. He knows his body well.
We tried not to overstrain him so that he can regain his form and prepare for future games," he said. On August 20, Inter Miami will play a match against Tigres as part of the Cup League.
