VANCOUVER, Canadá — Lionel Messi no jugará en el partido del Inter Miami en Vancouver contra los Whitecaps el sábado, una decisión basada en lo saturado del calendario del equipo, dijo el entrenador Gerardo Martino. Messi y sus compañeros Luis Suárez y Sergio Busquets no estarán con Miami, líder de la MLS con 31 puntos, en un partido al cual concurrirían más de 50.000 fanáticos.
Messi se ha perdido otros partidos de la MLS, en Orlando, Nueva York y Washington. El argentino de 36 años ha anotado 10 tantos en 10 partidos de la liga esta temporada y es líder con 12 asistencias. Martino aclaró que el césped artificial en el B.C. Place no incidió con la decisión. Más bien, el estratega argentino dijo que la intención fue ahorrar viajes agotadores y un cambio de horario de tres horas a los futbolistas.
