Before the MLS match against Chicago Fire (which ended 2-1), Inter Miami held a special ceremony to honor their captain, Lionel Messi, celebrating his 45th title in his career.
Messi was unable to play in the match due to an injury sustained in the final of the 2024 Copa America against Colombia, which Argentina won 1-0.
In the center circle, there was a banner displayed featuring the number 45. There were 45 children surrounding it, each holding a picture representing one of Messi's individual titles.
A club official presented Lionel Messi with a commemorative painting picturing the number 45.
