Lionel Messi was back in action with Inter Miami, after an injury that kept him out of the team in recent weeks.
However, on this occasion, it was not a day of celebration as the Argentine could not prevent defeat against Cincinnati.
That is why, at the end of the match, Leo Messi left the court in a sad and crestfallen manner. Because that defeat was the final one for Inter Miami in terms of their playoff dreams.

There are no more options and Inter Miami says goodbye to its season without having a chance to be MLS champion.
However, Messi once again showed his magnificence at the end of the game, with an incredible gesture towards a young Inter Miami supporter who approached the Argentine to get a photo and autograph.
It all happened in a matter of seconds. As usual, Leo Messi‘s bodyguard, who goes by the name of Yassine Cheuko, once again demonstrated his reflexes and quickness to act immediately when Messi could be in danger.
However, this time, perhaps this reaction was a bit forceful when he saw a child trying to approach Messi.
That child was strongly intercepted by the bodyguard who did not take into account that he was so young.
Messi quickly realized the situation, turned to the child and took a picture and signed his jersey. As a point of interest, the child was wearing a Barcelona cap.
In the end, everything ended well and the child was able to live one of his happiest days by being close to his idol.
