On the morning of May 19 ( Hanoi time), Inter Miami suffered a 0-3 defeat to Orlando City in MLS. Coach Javier Mascherano's team lost 5/7 of their most recent matches, conceding 20 goals and scoring only 12.

Messi played alongside Luis Suarez and Sergio Busquets in the defeat to Orlando City. However, the former Barcelona trio were ineffective. Meanwhile, Luis Muriel, Mario Pašalić and Dagur Thorhallsson scored, helping Orlando sink their opponents in the Florida derby.

Messi was a rare bright spot for Inter Miami against Orlando City. He created 3 chances for his teammates and had 2 shots on target, but could not score.

The Argentine superstar is still Inter Miami's best scorer since the beginning of the tournament with 5 goals. However, while M10 maintains stable performance, his teammates like Suarez and Busquets have declined. The remaining satellites at Inter Miami are also not in good form.

Mascherano’s future as coach has been called into question following Inter Miami’s poor performances. The former Argentina international joined the team at the start of the season to replace Tata Martino, but has been criticised by home fans for his lacklustre tactical approach.

The loss to Orlando City dropped Inter Miami to 6th place in the Eastern Conference.
