Lionel Messi reacts allergically – to a draw. His teammate Julian Gressel from Inter Miami now revealed this. “For him it is simply unacceptable to play a draw. It’s that simple,” said the Franconian native, who now plays for the US national team, in the “Major League Journeymen” podcast, and remembered: “When we did this year had a draw, he was obnoxious.”
Dealing with the very ambitious world star has been “very demanding,” said Gressel: “After all, we are talking about the player with the most victories in the history of football. You have to get used to that first.”
Gressel reported that Inter coach Gerardo Martino influenced his Argentinian compatriot Messi and made it clear to him that he couldn’t win all the games in the MLS either. “But his aura is just like that,” said Gressel.
Inter Miami with former Barca stars Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba failed early in the MLS play-offs as the best team in the main round. The team from Florida played a draw eight times in 34 matches during the regular season – three times in a row in September.
