Inside Inter Miami: Little time to recover as Messi, Inter Miami prepare for San Jose

What is wrong with Inter Miami?

That’s an interesting question these days as the club limps over to San Jose on Wednesday night for another crucial road contest in MLS league play.

Inter Miami has lost four of its past five games with the most recent being a demoralizing 4-1 loss at Minnesota. The team has given up 14 goals over those five games now faces a San Jose side, which leads MLS with 26 goals.

We have reactions from Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano and starting goalkeeper Oscar Ustari and we break down what’s wrong with the team.

We look at the social media drama between Minnesota United and Inter Miami owner David Beckham, and we have updates on the absences of Luis Suarez and Fafa Picault from Miami’s lineup.

Plus, a look at the San Jose Earthquakes, who are coached by former United States men’s national team coach Bruce Arena, and quick peek beyond to a clash Sunday with longtime state rival Orlando City.

And a glimpse of “Messi Mania” as fans flocked quite literally to see Messi up on the balcony of his hotel in San Jose much like people did recently for another Leo at Vatican City.
