Messi and Co. eliminated from MLS playoff contention as FC Cincinnati beats Inter Miami

The Hindu  

Alvaro Barreal scored in the 78th minute for FC Cincinnati, and Lionel Messi’s return was not enough to save Inter Miami’s season as Cincinnati prevailed 1-0 on Saturday night in rainy Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Inter Miami was eliminated from playoff contention due to its loss combined with CF Montreal’s win over the Portland Timbers. Messi played for the first time since September 20 after missing two weeks with a reaggravated scar tissue injury in his leg. Inter Miami controlled play in the first half and hit the woodwork on three separate occasions. On the first free kick, Messi tried to cross the ball in to a teammate and Cincinnati cleared it, setting up a fruitless Miami corner kick.
