Lionel Messi Suffers Hamstring Injury During Inter Miami's Victory Over Necaxa

By IANS News August 03, 2025 • 12:32 PM View: 406

Concacaf Champions Cup: Lionel Messi sustained a hamstring injury during Inter Miami's Leagues Cup penalty shootout victory over Club Necaxa, exiting the match in the 11th minute and heading straight to the locker room at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

The incident occurred as Messi was dribbling into the box and collided with Necaxa’s Raúl Sánchez and Alexis Peña. He stumbled to the ground and, in clear frustration, slammed the pitch. Despite briefly trying to shake it off, he eventually called for medical attention and was unable to continue. Federico Redondo came on to replace him in the lineup.

"Leo felt a discomfort in his hamstring," Inter Miami head coach Javier Mascherano said after the game.
