Inter Miami's Lionel Messi scored a goal in their 2-2 draw against Philadelphia Union, but the incident that followed his goal has put him in potential disciplinary trouble. A video of Messi's heated altercation with Philadelphia Union player Cavan Sullivan has surfaced, showing Messi hitting Sullivan on the head and demanding he leave the field.
This incident is now under review by the MLS Disciplinary Committee, which may result in either a fine or a one-match suspension for Messi. If suspended, Messi would miss Inter Miami's next match against Toronto. Messi scored the goal that gave Inter Miami a 2-1 lead in the match, dedicating the strike to his late father Jorge Messi.
However, Inter Miami ultimately settled for a 2-2 draw after more drama unfolded with two players being sent off late in the game. Messi's focus has now shifted from his goal to the disciplinary review, with his availability for the next match uncertain.
