Gerardo “Tata” Martino comments on Lionel Messi’s early substitution

Gerardo “Tata” Martino commented on Lionel Messi’s early substitution in Inter Miami’s 3-1 win vs. Nashville SC.

With Miami winning 2-0, Messi was substituted in the 49th minute of the game and generated concern among Argentine fans. Here is what coach Martino had to say in the post-match press conference:

“Leo left the game early in the second half due to a slight muscle discomfort. It was bothering him a bit and we took him out as a precaution.”

Martino later added that Messi will most likely not play Saturday’s game against DC United.

  1. Its coming closer to the end of messi Era…time for dybala to step up… once he’s fit… lataro should not be starting

  2. Palacios had great game with another great assist in dying seconds for his team to win it. He is becoming for some player he should be pushing starting spot for Argentina nt

  3. If messi is not fit. Just go with 442. Lautaro and julian upfront. Enzo palacious locelso DePaul as midfielders.
