THE BIGGER PICTURE

WHAT LIONEL MESSI SAID
Talismanic club captain Messi told on the back of another disappointing night at Chase Stadium against Orlando: “[We need to] keep going. It's a complicated time. But we'll all stay united.
“We're a team in difficult times, because when everyone wins, it's easy, but now that difficult times are coming, that's when we have to be more united than ever, be a true team, and move forward, because we have what it takes. Think about what's next and prepare for the next game.”

Messi went on to say, with Inter Miami looking to rediscover their spark before gracing a major FIFA tournament this summer: “We're coming off a period of bad results. But we have to keep working and think about what's next. With three or four games left in May, we [have to] finish the best possible way to be able to face the Club World Cup.”
