Lionel Messi is set to miss his second Inter Miami game since arriving in the United States, all but confirming his unavailability for the Atlanta game on Saturday.

This comes after he shared an Instagram stories featuring a pizza box from an Argentine pizzeria located in Miami. Fans had mixed reactions to the post, with some expressing disappointment that they wouldn’t see Messi play and others poking fun at his choice of pizza.

Here are some of the reactions from fans:

Lionel30i: “I’m crying thousands of people paid hundreds of dollars to see Messi play and he’s eating a pizza at home in Miami.”

BreathLeo: “Messi celebrated PSG defeat ordering pizza, hahaha.”

BC_Bryson: “I understand that the Big Story is that Messi might not play in Atlanta but What The Actual Fuck is this pizza he ordered???”

Messi_admirer: “That gotta be the worst pizza I’ve ever laid my eyes on!”

Mandaya: “I love Messi man. But calling this a pizza is an abomination. Maybe he just wants them to know how fake that dumbass club without him is just like this pizza without cheese?”

Earlier this week, Leo was left out of Argentina’s squad to face Bolivia due to some fitness issues. It’s suggested that his absence could be a precautionary measure to ensure he’s fit for the upcoming US Open Cup final in some two weeks. Miami hopes Messi will be in top form for the match.
