Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez shined and led Inter Miami to pass Kansas City in the round of 32 of the CONCACAF Champions League.
Messi scored a goal with an assist from Luis Suarez, then the Uruguayan star scored a second goal himself in his team’s 3-1 win in the second leg.
Inter Miami qualified thanks to this win and the two-match aggregate 4-2 to the round of 16.
At the same time, the American League imposed a penalty on Messi and Suarez due to the events of the recent New York City match.
The cameras captured Messi grabbing the neck of Mahdi Al-Balushi, one of the assistant coaches in New York City, while Suarez put his hand on the neck of defender Berk Resa.
The league considered that Messi and Suarez’s behavior violated the league’s policy, by putting their hands on the face, head or neck of the opponent, and accordingly, a fine was imposed on him, but its value was not disclosed.
We leave you with the brilliance of Messi and Suarez in the Kansas City match.
