Lionel Messi and Inter Miami have no more chances of qualifying for the MLS Playoffs. Gerardo Martino's team fell to FC Cincinnati and approaches the outcome of this season with still one game pending. Given this, the Fort Lauderdale team will have a time out to prepare for next season until February 2024. Nevertheless, everything seems to indicate that the team will not be completely inactive.

Since the arrival of Lionel Messi to Inter Miami, the team went from less to more. Before the arrival of the Argentine, the team accumulated 11 consecutive defeats, which put them in last place in the MLS Eastern Conference. On the other hand, in its debut in the Leagues Cup, the Miami team emerged victorious with a free kick goal from Lionel Messi that put things in favor of the Florida team.

After a good performance in the Leagues Cup, the team reached the final of the competition and finally lifted the title. This, in turn, represented the first title in the club's history and a major achievement for David Beckham's team. In turn, it also meant Lionel Messi's first title in the United States and the title he lacked to become the winningest footballer of all time.

The good moment shown, made it be taken into account by Argentina to dispute the start of the qualifiers against Ecuador and Bolivia. After scoring a goal against Ecuador, the player was doubtful for the match against Bolivia. Finally, Lionel Scaloni decided to leave him out. It should be noted that upon his return to the United States, the player missed approximately four games. Despite his return against Cincinnati and having played minutes yesterday against Paraguay, it is not known if the player will play the next game.

When is Messi playing again with Argentina?

The next match in these qualifiers for Argentina and Lionel Messi will be against Peru. The world champion team will travel to Lima next Tuesday, October 17. The Peruvian team has not seen victory in these qualifiers. So facing the first place in the table will undoubtedly be a difficult match. At the moment it is not known if Lionel Messi will play this match
