The Argentine star did not leave much of an impression in the 90 minutes of play at home at Chase Stadium due to being tightly blocked by the opposing defense.

In addition to not scoring or assisting, Messi did not have a single successful dribble. He lost possession 25 times, missed one good chance and had only two shots on target from 11 attempts. These numbers are in stark contrast to his previous form, when Messi scored five goals in his last three games.

Messi's explosive form has begun to slow down since the 1-1 draw with Toronto FC on September 28. In the confrontation with Chicago Fire, the pink team was unable to take advantage of the presence of the 37-year-old superstar to make a difference against the opponent's fast and powerful playing style.

The standout player for Inter Miami against Chicago Fire was striker Luis Suarez with a double. The other scorer for the home team was Tomas Aviles.

For Chicago Fire, the 5-3 victory not only brought three full points but also helped them open the door to the MLS play-off round.

Inter Miami, on the other hand, are facing immense pressure in the title race. Coach Javier Mascherano’s team is currently 4th in the Eastern Conference standings with 56 points, 7 points behind the leader Philadelphia Union but with a game in hand.

Messi's terrible shot On the morning of October 1, Lionel Messi sent the ball straight into the sky in Inter Miami's 3-5 defeat to Chicago Fire in round 32 of MLS. Before that, in the 52nd minute, he also hit the post.
