Thursday's Second Match: Messi and Ronaldo May Share the Pitch if the Portuguese Star Recovers from Calf Injury

At 36 years old, Messi has been sidelined since October 21, following a 1-0 loss for his Inter Miami squad against Charlotte on the last day of the Major League Soccer regular season, as reported by Xinhua.

Lionel Messi secured his eighth Ballon d'Or in 2023, setting a remarkable record spanning from 2009 to 2023.

Despite an undisclosed muscle injury sidelining the 36-year-old Inter Miami forward from his last four Major League Soccer club games, Lionel Messi's position as the Albiceleste captain remains intact in Argentina's squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers.

Messi underwent separate training from his teammates on Sunday. This comes after he was substituted late in Argentina's 1-0 victory over Ecuador in the inaugural South American zone qualifier on Thursday.

Although Messi had previously dismissed the idea of prolonging his international career until the next World Cup, he might be persuaded to reconsider.

Scheduled for September 27th, Miami is set to face Houston Dynamo in the final, aiming to secure its second trophy of the year.

In the third minute at Subaru Park, Venezuelan forward Josef Martinez handed the hosts an advantage as he received Sergii Kryvtsov's pass and calmly placed the ball past goalkeeper Andre Blake, as reported by Xinhua.

Messi found the back of the net just seven minutes into the match and followed up with a second strike in the 72nd minute.

Messi, adorned in the club's colors, not only graced the pitch but also left an indelible mark, securing a remarkable win against LIGA MX side Cruz Azul with a last-minute free-kick.
