The version of Lionel Messi who has become South Florida’s reigning sport king is not the playmaker in his prime that he was for Barcelona or the tortured captain-under-pressure that he was for Argentina.
The Messi of Miami is, in his own words, happy.
Happy to show his young new team, Inter Miami of M.L.S., how to win.
Less happy, perhaps, to deal with South Florida’s crushing summer humidity.
Inter Miami, which had the fewest points in M.L.S.
