Overview
- Lionel Messi left Inter Miami's game on Sunday in the 73rd minute after holding the back of his left leg and went straight to the dressing room while the match finished 6-4.
- Messi had provided two assists before leaving, but club and national medical teams have not yet released an official diagnosis.
- Videos shared on social media show him walking toward the tunnel, though those clips do not confirm the reason for the substitution.
- The issue is heightened by Messi's history of biceps femoris (hamstring) problems during his three seasons at Inter Miami and his age of 38.
- Argentina must name its final World Cup squad next week and play warm-up friendlies in early June, so official test results from Inter Miami and Argentina will be watched closely for selection and preparation decisions.
