Al Nassr Vs Inter Miami: Brazilian Anderson Talisca grabbed a sensational hattrick as his side Al Nassr thumped Inter Miami in their freindly fixture played on Thursday, February 1. The midfielder has been a sensation for the Saudi Pro League side this season and the fixture that had earlier anticipated the involvement of two of the greatest players of all time, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, didn't see the rivalry as the much-awaited 'Last Dance' was postponed as Ronaldo was already ruled out with an injury.
Also, merely hours before the commencement of the fixture, Inter Miami announced that 'La Pulga' Lionel Messi will not be starting the match and might even not feature in a fear that he might get injured, keeping in mind the upcoming schedule of the Major Soccer League 2024, and also the cup competitions, and the much awaited Copa America 2024, where Argentina will be defending their crown in the United States.
