Lionel Messi’s great gesture in Inter Miami’s League Cup victory.
At the awards ceremony, Lionel Messi performed a great gesture: he passed over the captain’s ribbon to DeAndre Yedlin, who had been in charge of that job before to his arrival, and the two of them raised the cup amid team jubilation.
Thus, with the bracelet on his left arm, the American walked up to the platform with Messi and raised the trophy together, a simple act that highlights the Rosario’s role in Tata Martino’s team.
