Lionel Messi, who returned from injury last weekend, suffered a setback and had to miss the Leagues Cup quarterfinal against Tigres.

Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano was ejected from the team's 2-1 win over Liga MX's Tigres UANL on Wednesday, but still appeared to play a role in leading the team to victory.

Luis Suarez scored twice on penalty kicks and Inter Miami overcame Lionel Messi’s absence to beat Tigres UANL from Mexico, 2-1, in a Leagues Cup quarterfinal Wednesday (Thursday in Manila).
