Inter Miami CF are back on the pitch this weekend as they take on FC Cincinnati in a critical matchup atop the Eastern Conference. However, they will do so with a heavily rotated squad, with Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba suspended due to skipping the MLS All-Star Game.

Soccer superstar Lionel Messi is teaming up with the drinkware brand Stanley to release a new collection of drinkware products.

On Saturday, the 38-year-old Messi scored his sixth brace in seven games for Inter Miami as they beat the New York Red Bulls 5–1, but it was the mark he set in the matchup that brought Ronaldo into the conversation.

Lionel Messi has no shortage of motivation in 2025. His Inter Miami CF won the Supporters' Shield last season, setting an MLS single-season record for points in the process, before being humbly knocked out of the playoffs in Round 1.
