Lionel Messi was seen pointing at MLS commissioner Don Garber several times during conversations following Inter Miami’s match against Cruz Azul on Wednesday. Footage from after the game captured Messi gesturing towards Garber as he spoke with him, only to return moments later to continue their discussion. Another clip revealed a mutual pointing exchange between them.
The MLS has chosen not to comment on the interaction, and Inter Miami has yet to respond to inquiries regarding it. This exchange occurred after Inter Miami secured a 2-0 victory in the Campeones Cup, marking Messi’s 100th goal with the team. With this win, Inter Miami added another trophy to their collection, which includes the Leagues Cup (2023), the Supporters’ Shield (2024), and the MLS Cup (2025), all achieved during Messi’s time with the club.

Fan Take: This moment signifies not only Messi’s continued influence within MLS but also highlights his growing legacy in American soccer. Fans should pay attention, as these interactions could reflect broader developments in the league’s direction and its commitment to elevating the sport in the U.S.
