Messi Faces Off Against Muller in High-Stakes MLS Semifinal Showdown: Who Will Seize the Final?
Both Inter Miami and the Vancouver Whitecaps are preparing to compete in the semifinals of their respective playoff conferences. If both clubs advance, they could meet in the Major League Soccer final — setting up a compelling showdown between Lionel Messi and Thomas Muller.
During an interview published on MLS’s official social media channels, Muller was asked about the possibility and admitted that the idea motivates him. “My history with him forces me to hope for a final against Miami,” the German forward said before adding a joke: “It’s not my fault. Sorry, they brought me in to say that.”
The Vancouver star then expanded on his long-running history with Messi. “For me it was just normal to pick a little bit of my history with Messi and the Barcelona teams,” he acknowledged. “I know the discussions in the fan bases, you know. Because it’s a Barcelona thing.”
Muller later addressed what a potential final between the two clubs would represent. “Miami is maybe the biggest brand in the East,” he admitted. “The Whitecaps are the future biggest brand in the West… Just kidding, but I’m working on it,” he said with a laugh. “It’s also two big players are coming up.”
