- This is how LIONEL MESSI CHANGED MLS already... 🤯
Much has been said about how the arrival of Leo Messi in a matter of days has impacted Inter Miami, as well as the perception of soccer in the United States by fans. But the influence of the magical Argentine is actually much bigger - he has already changed and continues to change the MLS and football as a game in America!
And this is not an exaggeration, but the truth of life! In this video, we will prove it to you. So sit back, like this video and let's get started! - Спорт

Never have i ever thought i’d be watching an MLS game. But here i am… interested in the developments of MLS…
I'm right there with you 😅
Here here !!!
Factz bro messi is the truth
@@michelleper5065 Maradona himself would disagree with your opinion of him being overrated but everyone is entitled to their own ignorance
@@judas_bdb8681 actually maradona is the one who said messi lack leadership and the ability to have ice in his veins.... he lacks this spark.... nothing can change this.... as i said i am being generous for giving messi 2/10 on diego maradona scale because it is really 15% not 20%
Amazed by the impact of the well deserving GOAT, he makes me happy just seeing him smile, only two mls games already and he is, again making millions smile. I do not understand what an impact he has and yet I do not understand why he doesn’t have a greater impact!! I feel like his friend, you know, that is what great athletes do to you, Mohamed Ali, Michael Jordan, Bruce Lee, and NOW! Messi! Thanks my friend, we are friends.
You want to be his friend because hes successful and a champion. Youre a kiss ass who Messi doesnt need
Messi is one of the very few people who can be considered a genuine champion, like mike Tyson said, “a champion doesn’t hide from the people, a champion is for the people and accepted by them”, it’s not his exact quote but you get what I mean, I personally know at least 10 people that would give their life for that man 😂
delusions.... he is overrated footballer... that always stood in the same place on the field... never ran all over the field like diego armando maradona... and never had the dribbling ability nor natural talent nor the ability to deliver championship and titles to weak teams like diego armando maradona.... simply overrated..... 2/10 on maradona scale... sorry but this is the truth
@@michelleper5065 and how many trophies does Maradona have compared to messi? Messi >>>>>>> any footballer, now get Maradona’s nuts out yo mouth 😂😂
GOAT for a reason ❤🎉
GRASS FIELDS IN ALL USA STADIUMS!! MESSI THE GOAT!
I hope those who have a say in the MLS do the right thing and not make excuses or gaslight the players and fans about how safe astro turf is when it's widely known that it's not. It's not worth an injury wether it's Messi or an unknown player.
Correct! If Americans seriously want to get their football / soccer game into a one of the most popular football industry in the world, regulations in connection with this game should be updated appropriately. See, just after Messi joined there, I take interest about the MLS league and its clubs, and ultimately about American football / soccer. I'm from India - always runs 9 hrs ahead from the American time! Yet I saw the Messi's last two games.
Messi’s contract with Inter gives Messi the right to refuse to play in artificial turf. 😊
I mean I don't even have to be a doctor to know why astro turf is bad. It's a harder material than natural grass. It's always better to fall on a pillow than on a carpet floor.
Messi ❤
If reports are true… Messi’s left foot is insured for $900m… the insurer will have some say in this too 😂 Messi is not ‘just’ a player…
@@A_R_B_GHe will still be insured i think. 😂😂
@@iggymich"I think". Good one.
Facts 😂
@@A_R_B_Gdepends if it’s term or life insurance. Term he would just let it expire (cheaper premiums) where life it would still be insured. That said I highly doubt he put a whole life policy on his foot. Most likely it expires when he retires.
We need more grass fields in us stadiums
Turf should go ... natural grass all the way
I hope that all the MLS teams are changing their stance on artificial grass for Messi. I don't think any player irrespective of the sport enjoys playing on artificial grass, I heard Travis Kelce saying he gets severe skin tears every time he plays on artificial grass. The sports team in America earn so much, the least they can do is grow natural grass and protect the players.
Goat MESSI!
This is Messi we are discussing! The best of the best football/soccer players. Of course there will be a huge impact. Lucky league.❤❤🎉🎉
weak league and messi is not even top 5 in history ... he is bottom of the top 10.... as i always say comparing him to the divine diego maradona is insult to maradona and really blasphemy
@@michelleper5065Messi has a longer career and averages more goals per mins played. Messi is the greatest to ever do it.
@@edyrivero7084 none of this matter if his goals are so easy to score.... maradona goals were beautiful and hard to score... same for his assists.... he also played all over the field... was much stronger than messi... he scored from corners... he scored beautiful free kicks that put the goalie in the net with the ball... in other words messi is 2/10 on maradona scale.... and this is when messi was at his bestest in 2014.... now days he is not even 2/10 on maradona scale
@@edyrivero7084 messi chocked ... if not for emiliano and the rigged world cup he once again would go home empty handed.... i literally saw messi play all of his career and not once was i impressed with him... i wish it was not like that but it is
@@edyrivero7084 what some of you guys do not understand is that messi and ronaldo and all the wannabes in between all worship diego maradona.... you know where messi is he is in miami... simply ask him you will see... the reason all football players worship maradona is because they know the truth.... they play the game... they know the truth
As an African who loves and follow Soccer, i didnt even know about MLS until Messi
Don't worry, plenty of Americans didn't know either lol.
@@OzymandiasWasRightmost Americans still don't know.
You forgot to mentioned they also signed three young very talented South Americans facundo farias (left wing) Diego Gomez (midfielder) and Tomas Avilés(center back)
So..
@@anvarriyas6884 Messi needs good team mates so he can carry them like he carried Barcelona
@DemonicVeni that doesn't make any sense
GOAT
Goat needs real grass
Sitting here in India i never imagined i will wake up at 3 am in morning to see Inter Miami play in my lifetime,i have been following my God all his life,he is going to rock the Northern Hemisphere like never before and never again.
messi is the god of football respected in England UK
Now he want to promote south american football to world wide ❤️❤️❤️❤️Goat effect
EXCELLENT REPORT !!! CONGRATULATIONS!!
For me the impact is 10/10 coz before i didnt know about mls and intermaimi cf
I think that it is spectacular the way the league is rapidly evolving shortly after Messi's arrival. It's about time the US unstraps its football, aka (soccer) league from constraining rules that don't allow it to grow and prosper. I've always suspected that the growth of soccer in the US was limited because major leagues of other sports such as American Football, Basketball, Baseball, and others had cornered the sports market in such a way that left no room for the MLS, but I was mistaken, none of them really compete with each other, they're very different disciplines and all have unique markets. The rise of the MLS in the US is more a sign of cultural evolution, rather than market competition. The time of the MLS has arrived. May the MLS find equal or even surpass the prestige of other top world soccer leagues such as the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and others. May God bless the MLS and all of its affiliates.
Also, it was never really promoted by the television industry because the sport does allow for lucrative advertising breaks, like other North American sports do. So there was no incentive for them, and not really easy to watch and become a fan of the sport.
*does not allow
English English: 'turf' = grass, a living plant growing in soil with roots, microbes, etc. It converts sunlight into living material via quantum mechanical photosynthesis, so it doesn't get hot in direct sunlight.
This video: 'turf' = artificial grass you can nuy for your garden at a carpet shop. Artificial grass can look like the real thing but is laid on sterile sand. It burns when you slide on it due to friction, gets extremely hot in direct sun as the light is not converted to plant sugars, grips your boots, so twisting and turning rips your ligaments. It is sterile

Beckham is gonna be a billionaire
Very true and Messi too will be with him in this Billionaire thing. I think Messi is already a billionaire in his own . Regarding all those yrs he has been getting over 150m from his salary and his sponsors of this sport. From Adidas to Pepsi to MasterCard etc. He has his own businesses too hotels in Spain and Ibiza others worldwide and his clothes Shops in Spain and France and Italy, Argentina . This guy is rich like rich. I think he will open in the US another business before he retires .
He already is
@@iggymich messi is about to be a billionaire times 20
Natural grass is not only good for Messi, but for all the players who use it, good for health in the long run
MLS also needs pro/rel with 4 divisions, no salary cap, more clubs, and a change in the calendar year, from August to June.
Great video, very interesting insights that we normally are not familiar with.
My friend dislocated his knee playing on fake grass while being a goal keeper. He tried diving to the left to save but his left foot didn't move because the grass was too grippy.
Soccer should NEVER be played on turf!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEVER! Soccer was meant to be played on GRASS! Thank you Messi
The turf got injured playing beneath Zlatan
😂
I had to read this one twice😂
All the teams that are going to play Messi are going to make more revenue in the one game then the whole season
Messi
America already has massive sports stars in they're sports. The difference between them and Messi and Ronaldo is that they are known in every country in the world, not just north america. China, japan, Europe, south america, middle east, africa. Show a picture of any of these two and everybody knows them.
Hey its not about buying the best players, it's about Motivating the younger generation to become better and competitive, The rest are only visitors and visitors leave when the night shut in. Be like Europe, From young age they train the kids to become big, just like the rest of sports in the US do. This will take a while but if you have patience, it can come true. So take advantage of Leo while you can, take your kids and let them get a click of what this Sport can offer since its Global.
True but since these younger generations needs to see and get trained by the foreign professionals then its a 50/50 for both the US and the foreigners. 😊
Most importantly the quality and impact of that particular person could offer. This expert not only motivates the young generation but also creates an opportunity for better life and career cause Not everyone has the same talent and requirements like Michale Phelps or LeBron James and the kids has more options to choose which field they are fit to play.
It is strange how the US, I know Canada participates in MLS, didn't already aimed more aggressive to be the number one "soccer" country since it would also be a very powerful tool to franchise the world as they already done in all other fields.
MLS lucky bring goat to club even in eropa league still want his sign with old king lion messi still have a vag and claw.. GODBLEES YOU lion messi
The problem is in North America. Me being a Vancouver Whitecaps season ticket holder is that the stadium is shared with North American football teams. And those big boys just tear the shit out of the grass
Grass all the way but using turf shoes are as safe as natural grass
Real grass?! I LOVE IT!
yes, more natural grass fields please
They could raise the 3 DP rule to 4 or 5. Or a better option would be to raise the salary cap, or do both
Look at the sideburns on that goat! 🐐
They are going to hold the World Cup Next. They better replace the turf with Grass. What's a better excuse for that than for Messi?
am subscribing u because Leo messi ❤
cause' messi effect. 😎
Well made video.
Messi is the best thats a fact, tho its silly move. Because of 1 player they are changing everything. Then again this could mby improve gameplay, skills etc for everyone in the END!? What do you guys think?
Too bad so many injuries had to happen first, but i hope if they refuse to change Messi sits out. Not just for his health but to make a statement. Its time for artificial turf to go no matter what it takes. Its not safe.
I really was looking for LAFC vs inter n the leagues cup
Both Atlanta and Charlotte are both refusing, because they both have NFL games the next day and don't have time to convert back (remove the grass turf). Unfortunately, the NFL teams are the primary tenants and they prefer field turf (not the same as the out dated original astro turf BTW), because there have been many injuries from grass trufs deteriorating. Also they had an issue with the temporary grass in the friendly played in LA, which was probably worse condition and more dangerous than using the artificial turf. Palmeiras converted to field turf, and has reported no increase in injuries. I'll agree that grass is a better surface (if kept in good condition), but the injuries excuse is over blown.
Nfl game is different to football. One is played primarily with hands while the other is majorly played with foot. Different techniques, different muscle degradation on matches.
Even real grass is used as a temporary surface due to modern stadia not allowing enough light for grass to grow. It can end up like artificial grass. It is often cultivated on a fine plastic mesh that holds it together and helps roll it up as the turf is sliced off the ground where it is grown. That mesh can catch boot studs and rip ligaments
@@cuebjIf it was so then professionals of football like Zlatan and Messi would not have said so. America shd embrace positivity in this game. Europe plays in Natural grass always. And nothing of the growth you r saying has happened
@@mercenery1232They get the same type of injuries.
@@mercenery1232im talking about non contact injuries only. Like acl tears, hamstring pulls, etc. because both sports rely on agility. Wide receiver has to be able to change direction and accelerate. Similar to winger. I played both sports, so I can speak on this better than anyone here.
There needs to be a balance between letting teams spend lots of money and keeping the league fair so the bottom teams can come back up. We don’t want the MLS to be a farmer’s league!
❤😊
I don't know why MLS makes things so complicated. Just take the same rules that any of the big 5 leagues use, implement those, and you will see the sport grow
I guess the weather is a factor specially in the north with the natural grass, but if Qatar could have the world cup, engineers can do something about.
Trust me I feel super bad for Mr. Piers Morgan the journalist n only ronaldo Fanboi😂😂
Another problem with MLS is that Americans aren't much interested in Football, they are watching Inter Miami because Messi is in it, we saw when Messi was once out of the field they started to leave. Football will never be popular in the USA. They simply do not have excitement for this game, they just are interested in star footballers.
IMO football is always going to be secondary choice for an American.
Football is actually the second most watched for younger Americans, behind NFL and College Football, just not the MLS. The Premier League and Liga MX both get more viewership. The hope is Messi will create more change, like this video says. Salary cap would be fine with 3 dps if they had NFL salaries. Hopefully, this speeds up raising the cap, and getting rid of some other restrictions.
Hopefully no shameful ALL STAR game next year.
In 1975 the then "greatest player of all time", Pelé, joined the NASL's New York Cosmos. Attendance across the league soared. With no salary cap or other financial limitations, other teams signed their own superplayers like Franz Beckenbauer, Gerd Müller and Joan Cruyff. The league expanded like a supernova. All these players were over 30 and at the end of their careers. After three seasons Pelé retired in 1977. In 1984 the NASL folded.
Messi is a superlative player. I don't consider him the football GOAT (I give that title to either Cruyff or Alfredo Di Stéfano), but he is the undisputed sport superstar of this era, with the highest commercial value of any sports figure in history save Michael Jordan. But he'll be gone in 3 years and the changes this video suggests should be made to MLS rules to accommodate Messi will probably have a destabilizing effect to the League. MLS was already the most stable, most successful association football league in US history before Messi came around. And contrary to the claim made in 6:04, MLS has not stagnated. On the contrary, since 2012 (David Beckham's last year in MLS) 10 new franchises have come into the league (11 if you count LAFC), league attendance has grown, TV rights have been sold for much more money, and the value of the franchises themselves has grown considerably. MLS doesn't need Lionel Messi. Apple Inc., however, does. But that's a different story.
#gonatural the new slogan of protest😂
I miss the old MLS😥
The European audience might be so prestigious for the MLS but it’s the Mexican audience that’s gonna make them the money first. There’s a reason why the Mexican national team plays most of its games in the US. They know the Mexican faithful will go to the stadium’s. The leagues cup is nothing but a scheme to take a advantage of those Mexican immigrants wanting to go see their favorite MX teams in person.
Artificial turf is amateur and if MLS is going to be a top league they need to go all grass...the one requirement for a club to join MLS should be field must be grass
Natural grass is the best
3 here think😊
3:26 background Music !Anyone
If America is to advance they'll have to get real grass.
The name is not "soccer", it is FOOTBALL. You can call it european football if you prefer.
Colonizers like you thinks everything was invented by Europeans. Don't believe the books , it's all lies . Futbol comes from Africa .
Soccer is literally what it’s called, it stands for association football, and why are y’all sooooo obsessed what another country calls it? It’s bizarre af 😂😂 USA isn’t the only other country to not call it football 😂
@@smoaky123 the name is futbol
@@servantofgod3546 that’s just what some countries call it 🤣🤣🤣 England invented the sport and have called it both football and soccer. Other countries have different names for it but for some reason only ppl hyper fixate over the US calling it soccer…. it’s just a majority call it football or futbol but doesn’t mean you get a monopoly on different usages.
@@smoaky123 except it's not European football, its just football cuz that is what it's called bascially everywhere on the globe 🤷♂️
No God please no no 😢😢😂😂😂
Aww come on! I was hoping Charlotte was not one of them! Then again Bank of America Stadium is just a "football" stadium and not a real soccer stadium like the Exploria Stadium in Orlando
If you want to be take seriously, change it to Natural grass.
bro I have been saying things like this for a while now about "mls" THEY DON'T SEEM TO CARE ABOUT THE AESTHETICS OF THE WORLD GAME " TURF , SIGNAGE AROUND THE PITCH ( PIECES OF SIGNAGE SPACES IN BETWEEN THE ELECTRIC SIGNAGE AND OR LACK THERE OF) PLEASE PLEASE COVER IT................. IT LOOK SO BAD ON TV
( Apple TV). MLS IS ALL ABOUT $$$$$$$$$$$.................
So it’s not good if Messi wins the leagues cup for the MLS?
Its a shame Saudi has started bringing in players because a lot of them might have otherwise gone to America
Fake grass, calling football soccer, and small venues. Messi will change it all!!!
Ahhh, we are interested in watching Miami single handily destroy all of MLS, but after one season of that. Yes. It will get boring.
messi come to MLS to debunked equal pay in america
World cup is coming here in 2026 .. thats why they changing fro artificial to real grass
FIFA requires all World Cup games to be played on grass, so even back in 1994 when the United States hosted the World Cup and had games hosted in the Pontiac Silverdome outside of Detroit, they brought in real grass.
Wrong information.
Messi will have to play on artificial turf or just not risking fans not attending
your giving out wrong information, and you're forgetting where the next World Cup is going to be.
Mess doesn't have to play if he deems it unsafe. Messi's left foot is worth more than most of these clubs anyway.
Ironically, association football is almost the epitome of unfettered capitalism in contrast to the centrally controlled (by the federations) closed shop economies of US sports
the last change needs to be a relegation system and a point-based league system, to be in pair with other leagues.
MLS is called the retirement league bc it's system cannot be taken seriously outside US too.
What is that sport called SUCKER?
😂😂😂No God please no no noooo
Goat needs real grass
So are we calling it football yet or that cannot change now that Messi is in?? 🤭
That's one ugly uniform....
MLS was a great idea, he uses the heavy bandwagon fans to good use
Here’s a second step for the league, add promotion and relegation,….make it into a legitimate league.
Messi doesn’t eat chips and hamburgers lol
