Inter Miami’s upcoming friendly against Japanese League champions Vissel Kobe, has given way to so much chaos lately. Per initial rumors, the Herons canceled the friendly because of Lionel Messi‘s injury woes. But the rumor died down and the match will be going on as scheduled. However, the availability of Messi and Luis Suarez, among others, is still ambiguous due to their physical fitness. Well, another piece of bad news has dropped. Per the most recent development, Apple TV’s MLS Season Pass won’t broadcast Inter Miami’s outing against Vissel Kobe.

Apple TV removed the Inter Miami-Vissel Kobe game from the MLS Season Pass after broadcasting the Herons’ pre-season outings against Saudi League’s Al Hilal and Al Nassr, and Hong Kong’s all-star team. Why?

MLS explains why Inter Miami game vs. Vissel Kobe game was removed from Apple TV due to ‘local promoters’

As per the MLS, the promoter for the Inter Miami-Vissel Kobe game failed to provide Apple TV with a ‘world feed‘ for distribution within the timeframe required to meet technical needs. MLS added that the production of host feed is ‘solely the responsibility of the promoter‘. It was the case when Apple TV broadcasted Inter Miami’s other friendly fixtures on the MLS Season Pass. NSN, co-founded by Barcelona icon and ex-Vissel Kobe star Andres Iniesta, is the promoter of the Inter Miami-Vissel Kobe game.

NSN has promoted Inter Miami’s friendly against El Salvador. It was also set to take the Herons on a Chinese tour. But it later canceled it because of the death of a former Chinese Premier. Co-founder Andres Iniesta on Monday announced that he will be in the stands to watch his former team take on Miami, which houses four of his ex-Barcelona teammates. Even though Apple TV has withdrawn from broadcasting the coveted match, it is not as if the fans won’t have any chance to watch the game. We have you covered with alternatives to stream the clash in Japan.
