The excitement and thrill you get from seeing the best player in the world for the first time can be on a different level. But the idea is to hold onto your nerves and emotions and focus on the process. Inter Miami will take on the El Salvador national team in a friendly match in January. But the Central American team has already been given specific instructions on how to counter Lionel Messi’s team.

The Argentina star hardly played any games for the club in Major League Soccer due to injury. But the star is looking to make up his time and play all the pre-season games coming up. One of them will be against the 78th FIFA-ranked senior national team.

Clear vision against Lionel Messi for El Salvador

El Salvador has been playing matches against solid teams recently. The team also managed to draw with Son Heung-min’s South Korea in recent friendlies. With the available resources they have, the team was asked to show some fight by their coach, Ruben De la Barrera. As reported, the coach’s advice was, “I always say that in front of great teams and huge players, one has the opportunity to be able to face each other. You don’t have to dedicate yourself to watching them and venerating them, but to compete against them.”

It looks like the coach is not ready to back down to the big names in the Inter Miami squad. David Beckham’s team added much more firepower to their squad with the addition of Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, who also won the World Cup.
