Javier Mascheranocoach of Inter Miamicriticized on Saturday the sanction of the Mls To Lionel Messi already Jordi Dawn For absent from the All-Star, which did not allow them to play tonight at 0-0 at home against Cincinnati. “I did not come here to criticize the MLS or to change the rules. We adapt to what happened, beyond that I do not share the decision, I do not share it at all,” he said at the beginning of his press conference.
The coach acknowledged that he seems “strange” that “one day one thing is said and the next day another decision is made”, an allusion to the MLS Commissioner, Don Garber, to avoid Wednesday to confirm the suspension to Messi and Jordi Alba. Finally on Friday the sanction was announced by the League. “We all listen to that it was understandable, of the number of games that had been playing,” said Mascherano reinforcing the inter Miami argument for his very demanding calendar in recent weeks.
“We do not ask that it be different. Now, I make a consultation: what happens if today’s game (against Cincinnati) was a visitor? They would also have asked that Leo does not play? Because to fill stadiums and make a box office, there nobody complains, huh? What happens is that this game played at home. There is the issue. With that, I leave you too,” he said to you. “
In another question of this media attention, Mascherano also ironized about the sanction of the MLS to Messi and Jordi Alba when he talked about the recent signing of Rodrigo de Paul, officially presented tonight at Chase Stadium. “It is a new historical signing for this club. That a world champion (with Argentina) comes at the age that comes, with 31 years, in total fullness. I think he speaks of the ambition of this club, of wanting to continue growing as a club, of aiming to continue valueing this league, although he often receives abuse or ‘destroying,” he said.

Despite the stumbling at home in front of Cincinnati, Mascherano was satisfied with “the great game” of his players and considered that they deserved the victory “clearly.” The coach also talked about the arbitration after during the meeting he was especially angry by a penalty not beaten by the collegiate in the second half after a demolition within the Deandre Yedlin area to Fafà Picault.
“Of arbitration, nothing. The only thing is that a team that has as many goals in the MLS as us, I think we are the team that most, that we generate so many situations … we have 22 days and zero criminals. Rare, huh? Look that we step on the area and zero criminals. I leave it for them to think about it,” he said.
