Inter Miami will play Toronto FC in a match called “Sunday Night Soccer” in week seven of MLS 2025. The match will take place on Monday morning (7/4) at 04:30 IST.
However, it is still not certain if Messi will be there. A number of other key players are also doubtful.
This will be the 12th match between Inter Miami and Toronto FC. Inter Miami has won 9 out of the 11 games they have played against Toronto FC.
In the 2024 season, Inter Miami won all three games against Toronto — two in the regular season and one in the Leagues Cup Round of 32.
The last time the two teams met, Inter Miami won 1-0 at Toronto in October 2024.
Toronto FC come to South Florida with a poor record. They are winless in their first six games of the 2025 MLS season, collecting just two points from two draws and four losses.
Toronto currently sits in 14th place in the Eastern Conference standings. Forward Deandre Kerr is the team’s top scorer with two goals, while Federico Bernardeschi has two assists.
Messi Doubtful to Appear
Major League Soccer (MLS) is trying to make Sunday Night Soccer a big event with Lionel Messi for Inter Miami, but this has not yet worked out the way they expected.
Up until the seventh week of the season, Messi has only appeared once in a Sunday night slot against Atlanta United. The Argentine superstar has been absent from the prime-time games otherwise.
Inter Miami’s top priority right now is the CONCACAF Champions Cup.
After losing the first leg against Los Angeles FC, the squad nicknamed The Herons must bounce back to advance to the semifinals — a stage they failed to achieve last season and is now the main target for Lionel Messi and his teammates.
Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano has signaled that he will rotate players to maintain the squad’s fitness ahead of the important match in the middle of next week.
“We will discuss as usual, including with Messi,” Mascherano said on Sunday (6/4).
“I have an idea, but everything is still open. Although Wednesday’s game is very important, Sunday’s performance will also have an impact. It’s only been 48 hours since the last game, so we’ll see how things develop and decide on matchday,” he explained.
If Messi is out again, MLS will have to accept that the strategy of building Sunday Night Soccer’s appeal around Messi has failed again. Another week without the global icon on the main stage.
But there is still hope in the following week. Inter Miami is scheduled to visit the Chicago Fire, Gregg Berhalter’s team on Sunday, April 13 local time.
The match has the potential to be a return to the Sunday night slot for Messi.
After that, Inter Miami’s next Sunday Night Soccer match will take place on May 18, when they face city rivals Orlando City in a fierce duel dubbed the Clásico del Sol.(*)
