MLS Cup Final: Messi Faces Müller, Fitness Questions Linger for Vancouver Star

Both clubs reach their first MLS Cup with global attention trained on Apple TV coverage.

Overview

  • Inter Miami host the Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS Cup final at Chase Stadium in Florida on December 6 (20:30 CET).
  • Reports say Thomas Müller has been managing a posterior thigh issue, skipped the last on‑field session before travel, and limited team training to treatment and gym work.
  • Müller signaled eagerness in his newsletter, calling a showdown with Lionel Messi a special challenge and urging focus on finishing the job.
  • The final streams on Apple TV rather than traditional television, with access requiring an Apple TV subscription.
  • Since arriving from Bayern in the summer, Müller has produced quickly for Vancouver, with multiple goals and assists in limited matches, as family travel plans proceed and his wife competes at a dressage event in Salzburg.
