Fans disappointed after hamstring injury forces Messi to miss match in DC

Major League Soccer’s Inter Miami visited D.C. United at Audi Field Saturday. A few weeks ago, the secondary ticket market had the cheapest seats north of $200. The reason why: Lionel Messi. Fans in the district were excited to see Messi play after missing the opportunity last year when he joined the club after Miami played their lone game of the year at Audi Field. But Messi’s right hamstring had other plans.

0:15 Let me stop you right there. He's not "one of the best", he is the best. Do better when writing segments.

No use arguing with Pessi fans 😂

Its not even Lion-el Messi. Its Leo-nel Messi, they cannot even prounce it correctly.

messi is not "one of the best" he is the best

[@thundershield9102]

Let me correct you Messi is not one of the best right Messi is the greatest football player in the history of football. I know Ronaldo is handsome for girls but truth is truth you have to acknowledge Messi is the greatest football player in the history of football.

[@BenFc356]

Sorry my friend but you’ve got it all wrong, the girls only follow Neymar, the most overrated player in his generation who without his looks would be nothing these days, Ronaldo is the embodiment of hard work, a role model for the future generation, doesn’t promote beer and cola brands, every trophy he wins is earned not given and the ultimate trophy is yet to be won but one can only hope.

@@BenFc356 Role model 🤣🤣 we all know now generation only and only care about Instagram and Twitter. Example - MBappe, he follows Ronaldo all his childhood but after seen Messi he prefer Messi it's common sense " who knows football know Messi".

@@thundershield9102 so by your logic whoever follows Ronaldo, the person who arguably contributed the most if not the second most to football doesn’t know football?

Not 1 person is disappointed

[@simbaking6338]

The man is injured so what did they expect him to do...play with injury to worsen his injury further?..They got to be joking...They lost the match 3-1 to Messi's team anyway.

[@hamudanishamusi6837]

Lionel his best player ever

[@khusimangurung7476]

Meeeeeeeeeesssssssssssiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[@tonytorres1624]

If they understand they are players, humans could get injury, even Messi look like a perfect machine is a human.

[@fatcatpatdat]

Better disappointed for a few games than end the GOAT 's career

[@CDmusic10]

I love how they only say the "World Cup" as if he hasn't been dominating for 17+ years lol.
