Many times social networks have been flooded with videos of “memory” combinations. Lionel Messi AND Jordi Alba It already seems natural and the strange thing is that they don’t happen when they are together on a playing field. This Sunday, at dawn on Monday in Argentina, The Argentine world champion intervened in the 92nd minute to save Inter Miami and, after a double block combination with the Spanish full-back made in Barcelona, he put the 1-1 against Los Angeles Galaxyin their second meeting of the season US MLS.

The development of the game had cost Las Garzas a lot, on their first trip of the season away from Florida. Led by the quality of Riqui Puig, another former teammate of the culé, the great winners of the MLS have found a way to detach Inter: by taking the ball away from them.
But Marco Delgado’s second yellow card dismissal of the 87-year-old, shortly after Serbian Dejan Joveljic had blasted the local fans filling the Dignity Health Sports Park stadium in the city of Carson, on the outskirts of Los Angeles, changed the situation tone of a match that not even Messi’s quality could match.
The Florida team’s unforced errors in ball possession were visibly higher than in last Wednesday’s debut against Real Salt Lake. It seemed that the Galaxy had come out determined to ‘not respect’ the hierarchy imposed by Messi, Alba, Sergio Busquets and Luis Suárez, once again disconnected and replaced early by Tata Martino, which provoked some insults live from the Uruguayan.
