In a recent game between Inter Miami and the San Jose Earthquakes, head coach Bruce Arena stepped in to prevent Lionel Messi from receiving a red card after the match concluded. Frustrated over a late tackle that wasn't called, Messi confronted the referee but was met with the directive to "walk away now." Arena intervened for Messi's protection, emphasizing that it would have been unreasonable for him to be sent off. The match ended in a 3-3 draw, leaving Inter Miami with mixed results after their recent performances.
He was obviously not happy and I wanted to make sure he wasn't going to get a red card. I just tried to move him out of the way.
I just wanted to make sure we get him out of there and he's ready to play the next game for Miami.
