De Boel reenacts Messi's gesture with Maradona
The match between Inter Miami and Monterrey in the U.S. Open Cup drew a heartfelt presence, as Rodrigo De Paul delivered a message of support to his friend Lionel Messi, who was absent from the game due to the passing of his father, Jorge Messi. De Paul demonstrated his loyalty by scoring a goal in the match and wearing a shirt underneath his jersey with Messi's name, in a gesture reminiscent of the one Messi made in 2020 after the death of Diego Maradona, when he wore a Newell’s Old Boys shirt and revealed it after scoring. Despite De Paul’s goal, Inter Miami lost the game 2-1 and remains in the race to advance to the quarter-finals of the U.S. Open Cup, needing to improve its position in the group stage. Additionally, Inter Miami paid tribute to Jorge Messi before the match, and teammate Luis Suárez extended condolences to the Messi family, showing particular respect for Messi’s father during the encounter.
