After missing his first game for Inter Miami since his arrival, Lionel Messi is expected to play on Wednesday against Toronto FC, sources told ESPN.
"From what I can see he looks good, he looks happy and ready to go," Miami defenderPhoto by Megan Briggs/Getty Images"Obviously you talk about Leo, he's the best player ever in the game, from the opponent's standpoint it strikes a bit of fear in them as well", Yedlin said.
"Experience means a lot, especially in this league. As you saw in that Atlanta game where it's up and down, up and down, [having Messi] helps slow the game down a bit." After Wednesday's contest with last-placed Toronto, Miami will play a road match against in-state rivalon Sunday and then play Houston in the U.S. Open Cup final on Sept. 27. Martino said after Saturday's loss that his rotations will be focused on the chance at a second trophy of the season.
"The final is just one game, and we're in it," Martino said after the loss to his former team Atlanta United."It's very tempting to play for a title. Right now we have seven to eight [MLS] games left. And the reality is that it's not a guarantee we'll make the playoffs.
