Inside Inter Miami: It’s playoff time! And Messi Mania is peaking on and off the field
Inter Miami won the Supporter’s Shield.
It set the record for most points in an MLS regular season.
But now can that success translate to the playoffs and can they win the franchise’s first MLS Cup?
The latest episode of Inside Inter Miami takes a look at that path the club faces and how Lionel Messi Mania is ramping up as the postseason begins on and off the field.
We look at Messi’s insane 11-minute hat trick off the bench to lead Miami to its 6-2 win over New England in the regular season finale last week.
Did he lock up MVP?
And then we chat about the Messi marketing push that’s gone into overdrive with everything from a new cologne, Bad Bunny sneakers, and more.
Hosts Michelle Kaufman and Andre Fernandez then talk about Luis Suarez and dive into the matchup with Atlanta United - a team Inter Miami has not defeated this season.
We’ll show what Julian Gressel, Drake Callender and Noah Allen had to say about Messi, the pressure of the playoffs and whether their coach Tata Martino should win MLS Coach of the Year.
