Messi, once more in action in practice this Tuesday (@InterMiamiCF)
Inter Miami can win its second title this Wednesday, as it will face Houston Dynamo in the final of the US Open Cup, the oldest soccer tournament in the United States. The Florida team hopes to include Lionel Messi, who is recovering from right hamstring discomfort, and that is why coach Gerardo Martino did not confirm the presence of the best player on the planet among the starters. However, a photo on the team’s networks generated a revolution among fans.
It is an image in which Messi appears in training and this excited the fans of Las Garzas, who hope to have the talent of the 36-year-old from Rosario. With the dream of being able to have it on the playing field of the DRV PNK Stadium, which will host the defining match.
“Game’s Day. Preparation mode,” reads the post on Twitter that includes four photos from this Tuesday’s practice and in one only Leo appears and it was the one that ignited the hopes among the fans of the franchise and the admirers of La Pulga. “I’m happy to see Messi in shape,” wrote one of the users. Others put next to “Messi”, a heart or a goat, which symbolizes the acronym GOAT (greatest of all time).
People’s reactions continued and ranged from “Messi returns” next to a heart and a love emoji, or “GOAT trains and returns”, “GOAT returns”, and even uploading a photo in which Leo ties his laces to enter the field and the fan wrote “where is Messi? “My goat will dance this Wednesday.”

The goat was widely used and was repeated in other comments such as “I see the goat”, “the goat preparing for the final. Let’s go!”, or “now we see Messi and we are happy.”
It should be remembered that Leo asked for a change in the last game he played, once morest Toronto FC, and following 37 minutes he was replaced. He was already suffering from discomfort due to the load of matches and at the start of the Qualifiers he did not play in the second round once morest Bolivia in La Paz, but he was in the first match and scored the great goal of the victory over Ecuador.
Since the Argentine’s debut, Inter Miami achieved the first title in its five-year history by winning the Leagues Cup. This Wednesday it can win its second crown in 68 days since Messi’s presentation, that Friday, July 21, when he debuted with a great goal from a free kick and victory once morest Cruz Azul.
Although Inter Miami does not lose sight of its goal of being able to enter the playoffs to get into the Major League Soccer (MLS) Playoffs. Today it is five points behind Montreal, the second of the teams that would be playing the tiebreaker to be able to get into the final phase. Five games remain for Lionel Messi’s team, which today once once more awakened the hope of the fans.
