In the United States' top football league, Inter Miami CF, which had an unsuccessful start to the season, lost narrowly in the first round against Los Angeles FC with a score of 0:1.
Medianews.az, citing Milli.Az, reports that tense moments occurred on the field during the match. The team's leader, Lionel Messi, was dissatisfied with the referees' decisions and could not control his emotions. It is stated that the Argentine star wanted to go to the referees' room after the match to talk to them.
