How to Stream Lionel Messi and Inter Miami vs. Olimpia

Inter Miami will head to Paraguay as their preseason starts winding down, going up against Olimpia. The Herons have played in five different countries so far this preseason, but they have had a more compact schedule than last year, which included extensive travel throughout Asia before starting the MLS play. One reason for this is that Javier Mascherano needs the team to be ready for the Concacaf Champions Cup, where they will meet Sporting Kansas City on Wednesday.

Playing against teams in the Americas should prepare Miami for the Champions Cup and help them aim for at least making it to the finals after falling short last season. The team is currently on an undefeated streak in the preseason.

Season Preparation

With the upcoming season approaching, Mascherano would likely be pleased with Miami’s preparation so far, but game pressure is always significantly different once the actual matches begin. Recent adjustments in the defense and midfield will certainly be critical when facing a Sporting Kansas City team that struggled last year. As the season nears, it will become increasingly essential for Inter Miami to build momentum with their game strategies, notably by effectively utilizing players like Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez in their formations.
