Messi was ridiculed in front of tens of thousands of Arab spectators

Lionel Messi was subjected to taunts from a Saudi Arabian adviser after he came on the field in Inter Miami's match against Al Nassr.



In the 83rd minute, when Al Nassr led Inter Miami 6-0, Lionel Messi was brought onto the field. Meanwhile, in the VIP area, Mr. Turki Sheikh, Chairman of the General Authority for Saudi Entertainment, raised six fingers to mock Messi amid the laughter of 26,000 fans present at Kingdom Arena. .

Turki Alalshikh said live on SSC: "It seems like Messi knew that Cristiano Ronaldo was injured and he knew that Al Nassr would humiliate Inter Miami. So, Messi deliberately avoided losing to Al Nassr when not there is Cristiano Ronaldo. Saudi Arabia has become Messi's curse."


According to some sources, Messi was forced to enter the field due to a previously signed contract. The mandatory competition clause forced the 2022 World Cup champion to appear at a time when he did not want to.

After entering the field, Messi did not play very aggressively, partly because the match was arranged, partly because he was injured. "El Pulga" could not help Inter Miami get even an honorable table.

After it was announced that Cristiano Ronaldo could not recover in time to play against Inter Miami, fans could only look forward to Lionel Messi. However, right before kickoff, Inter Miami announced that the Argentine superstar could not play. The reason is because Messi was upset from the match against Al Hilal. After testing, "El Pulga" suffered a hamstring injury.


However, just a few minutes before the opening whistle, the Inter Miami coaching staff "turned around" and added Messi's name to the list of reserve players.
