Lionel Messi and a crowd of 42,000 highlight Miami's final preseason match ahead of a packed competitive schedule.

Inter Miami concluded its 2025 preseason with a 2-2 draw against Orlando City at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, in front of 42,000 fans.
Lionel Messi played 75 minutes to loud cheers but did not score, while Fafà Picault's stoppage-time equalizer secured the draw for Miami.
