The Argentine showed that he is in excellent condition. scoring a brace and also providing an assist for the 3-1 final with which Inter Miami è took home the victory. The fact that he played the entire game says a lot about how Messi is now.
"How am I feeling? A little bit tired. The humidity and the heat in Miami don't help much, but I really wanted to come back, I've been off the field for a long time", Messi told Apple TV after the game. "Little by little I found myself with the group, I was feeling good and that’s why we decided I would play. I am very happy".
