Giorgio Chiellini’s Advice for MLS: Don’t Underestimate Lionel Messi
Leo Messi has thus far demonstrated an unstoppable level of play during his Inter Miami tenure, and opposing teams have yet to figure out how to stop him from scoring goals. Since the arrival of Messi, the Miami-based team has won each of their three games.
However, LAFC player and Juventus icon Giorgio Chiellini says Messi’s performance is not a surprise. For a player like Messi, Chiellini believes that kind of output is typical.
“I was not surprised. The problem is that maybe this league is surprised. I think they (MLS teams) have to do something better to try to contain Messi.”
Chiellini added a piece of advice for teams on how to hold Messi better.
“If you think that Messi is a normal player, it’s a huge mistake. It means you haven’t seen him for the last 15 years. If Sergio (Busquets) has the ball and you don’t mark Messi … maybe you don’t have a TV at home. I expect a little bit more pressure from the other teams. The last game seemed like less than a friendly.”
In the Leagues Cup round of 16, FC Dallas will face Messi’s Inter Miami. Messi’s first away match for the American team is drawing a lot of attention, and tickets have already sold out in less than 10 minutes.
