Inter Miami continued their preparation with another disappointing result, and a 0-0 conceded on the pitch at Vissel Kobe in Japan. Lionel Messi came on at the hour mark, while Sergi Busquets left with an injury.
If this preparation tour is supposed to place the level of Inter Miami on the international scene, then the result is rather worrying. Beaten by Al-Hilal (4-3), then especially slapped by Al-Nassr (6-0) under the eyes of a hilarious Cristiano Ronaldo, the Florida club conceded a sad 0-0 against Vissel Kobe, before lose on penalties. And it was clearly the Japanese champion who dominated this meeting, with 18 shots to 4.
This friendly match at least allowed the former Barcelona players to take a nice souvenir photo, Andres Iniesta reuniting for the occasion with the “blaugrana” colony of Inter Miami, Luis Suarez, Sergi Busquets, Jordi Alba and of course Lionel Messi.
Messi entered on the hour mark, Busquets injured
Messi, moreover, played in this meeting. In difficulty with a thigh, the eight-time Ballon d’Or was preserved on Sunday in Hong Kong, from the success of Inter Miami over the Hong Kong All Stars (4-1), which had provoked the anger of the Chinese public.
Japanese fans had the chance to see the famous number 10 in action, even if Messi only came on in the 60th minute, without really transforming the face of his team. Note the big black point of the evening for Inter Miami: the injury of Sergi Busquets, replaced in the 25th minute after receiving a large sole on his left ankle.
