Inter Miami CF Gears Up for Crucial Clash Against Eliminated D.C. United
Inter Miami CF is preparing for a crucial match against D.C. United, a game that holds significant importance for the Florida-based team's playoff hopes. The encounter is scheduled to take place at Chase Stadium.
As it stands, Miami is in a tight race with Vancouver for the coveted Supporters' Shield, the award given to the team with the best regular-season record in Major League Soccer. With seven matches remaining, Miami and Vancouver are locked in a thrilling battle.
Miami's manager, Javier Mascherano, has emphasised the team's pursuit of the Supporters' Shield, but he is also mindful of the upcoming challenge against D.C. United, a team that has already been eliminated from playoff contention. Mascherano warned against complacency, urging his team to maintain focus and intensity.
In terms of team news, Mascherano declined to comment on the potential extension of Lionel Messi's contract, stating that he is not the appropriate person to make such announcements. However, he did hint at positive news regarding Messi's future with the club being imminent.
The official announcement of Messi's contract extension with Inter Miami CF is expected from the club itself, likely within the next two weeks, following an agreement between Messi and Inter Miami.
Mascherano also highlighted the importance of the game against D.C. United, explaining that a win could mathematically bring Miami closer to the playoffs. He stated that if Miami emerges victorious and the New York Red Bulls either lose or draw against CF Montréal, Inter Miami CF can clinch a playoff berth in Major League Soccer.
Despite the excitement surrounding the potential playoff berth, Mascherano remained focused on the immediate task at hand. He reiterated the importance of every game and the need for the team to give their all in each and every match.
As the countdown to the game against D.C. United begins, fans of Inter Miami CF will be eagerly awaiting the outcome, not just for the potential playoff implications, but also for any updates regarding Lionel Messi's contract extension.
