Lionel Messi’s FIFA Club World Cup journey with Inter Miami ended in disappointment after a heavy 4-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in Atlanta, IsaGoal can report.
The Herons defied expectations to qualify unbeaten from Group A but were outclassed by European champions PSG in the Round of 16 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
First-half goals from Joao Neves (2), an own goal by Tomas Aviles, and a strike from Achraf Hakimi gave the French side full control before halftime.
Inter Miami showed more fight in the second half, but Gianluigi Donnarumma stood firm in goal to preserve the clean sheet.
Despite the scoreline, 38-year-old Messi was the standout performer for the MLS side, delivering a tireless performance against his former club.
French outlets praised the Argentine’s display, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic went even further in his assessment.
“Leo Messi didn’t lose, Inter Miami did,” Zlatan told FootMercato. “He’s surrounded by players who run as if they’re carrying bags of cement!”
Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano also hailed his compatriot.
“I think Leo played a great game with the few opportunities we had,” Mascherano told DAZN via BeIN Sports. “At 38, it’s an honour to coach him.”
With the Club World Cup now behind them, Inter Miami will shift focus to the MLS season.
They travel to Canada on July 5 for a matchup against bottom-placed CF Montréal in the Eastern Conference.
