    Lionel Messi and Inter Miami’s unbeaten start to the season was put to the test vs. another undefeated foe, and the South Florida side came out on top thanks to some resolute defending, good fortune and an unlikely hero. Benjamin Cremaschi scored at the 30-minute via a fortunate deflection, and that was enough for Inter Miami to defeat the host Columbus Crew, 1-0, in the battle of unbeaten teams at Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland on Saturday afternoon.

    The ongoing confusion and mystery regarding Lionel Messi’s availability was amplified before kickoff on Thursday, and what followed was a tense victory that was tighter than the final scoreline indicated. An Inter Miami team without Messi topped Jamaican club Cavalier FC 2-0 at Chase Stadium in the first leg of their Concacaf Champions Cup Round of 16 series on a brisk Thursday night in Fort Lauderdale.

I asked Javier Mascherano today how #InterMiamiCF & #Messi𓃵 feel amidst this poor run. His answer may surprise you: “De puta madre. De puta madre. De puta madre. Estamos muy bien.” Translation: “We’re fucking great. We’re fucking great. We’re fucking great. We’re very good.” https://t.co/UQ43nSIEQJ

Javier Mascherano states in his press conference today that Luis Suarez will miss a second straight game and is out for Wednesday’s match vs the San Jose Earthquakes. Suarez just missed the loss to Minnesota United to attend his brother-in-law’s wedding. #InterMiamiCF #Messi𓃵

Luis Suarez missed Inter Miami’s latest loss this past weekend due to what the team cited as personal reasons. Sources tell me those personal reasons were a relative’s wedding in another country. The @MIATotalFutbol story here 👉 https://t.co/s69XNgMM5k #InterMiamiCF #Messi https://t.co/QSMWFjRSFT

🤔 So what do we make of David Beckham’s Instagram comment on Minnesota United’s trash-talking post? Is he in the right by pointing out the post lacks professionalism and sportsmanship? Is it just good social media banter? Reading all comments. #InterMiamiCF #Messi𓃵 https://t.co/7dWW9C5X7r
