Miami could not win even with Suarez-Messi together

Photo: Collected. After three and a half years, two friends and former Barca teammates, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, fought on the field together. But Inter Miami could not win the match of the reunion of two football greats. The pre-season friendly against El Salvador ended in a goalless draw.

Although organized for the preparation of the season, the match was at the center of interest of football lovers because of Messi. Suarez also joined him again. Messi won all the possible titles in Barcelona jersey with this Uruguayan striker. Their impeccable pairing was considered ideal in the world of football. After a long break, they finally met again in one jersey.

Despite being on El Salvador's home turf, the display of passion for Messi among the local crowd was a sight to behold. The gallery erupted in cheers as the ball went to the feet of the World Cup-winning Argentine forward. However, Messi could not meet the expectations of the audience. The captain of Fera Albiceleste returned to the holiday after the ball went to his feet a couple of times.

However, the audience could not enjoy Messi's game for long. Inter Miami coach picked him up at the beginning of the second half. He was replaced by his former Barca team-mate Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.

The new season of Major League Soccer begins on February 21. Before that, Miami will play a few more preparatory matches. They will play against FC Dallas next Monday.
