This morning (March 17), social media was flooded with images showing Messi seemingly stepping on a Barcelona jersey as he stepped onto the field during the match between Inter Miami and Atlanta United in the US Major League Soccer.

Many people were disappointed when the above images were published. They asked related questions about the relationship between Messi and his old team. Remember, Barcelona was the team that actively pushed El Pulga to leave Camp Nou in the context that he wanted to stick with the team for life.

Since joining Inter Miami in 2023, Messi has found his inspiration to play football again. Despite having to miss many matches due to injury or poor physical condition, Messi still proves himself every time he plays. According to statistics, Messi has scored 38 goals in 44 appearances for Inter Miami.

In the match against Atlanta United this morning, Messi also shined when he contributed a skillful goal to help Inter Miami win 2-1 and rise to the top of the Eastern Conference standings in the US Major League Soccer.

Later, a video cleared Messi's name and confirmed that he was not a "traitor". In this video, a fan proactively threw a Barcelona shirt at Messi while the player was not paying attention. The Argentine superstar just stepped on the Barcelona shirt unconsciously.

However, many people are still not satisfied with Messi. An account named Abdul Wahab commented: "Messi stepped on the Barcelona shirt. After realizing that, he still did not turn around and pick it up. Meanwhile, C. Ronaldo never disrespects any shirt."

On the other hand, many people sympathized, thinking that the match was about to start and Messi had no time to go back and pick up his jersey.

Messi has repeatedly expressed his love for Barcelona after leaving the club. Recently, the striker has expressed his desire to play at Camp Nou when the stadium is completed in 2025.
