It was from the bench that Lionel Messi witnessed the defeat of his Inter Miami team against Monterrey (1-2) this Wednesday. A lost quarter-final first leg of the Concacaf Champions Cup angers the stars of the American club. Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba and their coach, Gerardo Tata Maretino allegedly attacked the referee and then the opposing coach, Tano Ortiz.
According to several Mexican media, the latter declared, during a pre-match press conference, that the referee would always be favorable to Inter Miami: “Everything that surrounds Messi can lead to making sporting decisions and non-sporting.”
Still according to Mexican media, this small contingent was reported by the Monterrey club by requesting its inclusion in the post-match report.
