Messi leads the club world cup, Infantino "bet right"

Reference News Network reported on July 1, according to the Spanish "Le Monde" website on June 24, "Come here to buy tickets and you can watch the Club World Cup with Messi participating." Even the official website of FIFA must admit this reality: maybe only the demand for Real Madrid club matches the desire to watch the Argentine player's game.

Messi is everywhere - the TV commercial of Messi's sponsor Michero Beer is aired before, at halftime and after the game; he appears on billboards of Adidas, Apple TV, Pepsi and its sports drink Gatorade, which are everywhere in many cities in the United States; in postings on the official social platform accounts of the Club World Cup, Messi and Real Madrid are the most liked and viewed content; he will appear in the 8th finals of the Club World Cup, which is a glory for Miami International and FIFA President Infantino himself. Messi will lead Miami International to a peak showdown with both sports and media significance. The Infantino Project will eventually be realized.

Infantino's plan for the Club World Cup has been perfectly successful both in terms of both the economy and the event itself. Miami International neither won the Central American and Caribbean Champions League, nor had its FIFA rankings enough points to participate in the Club World Cup, but Infantino still issued an invitation to host the United States. This decision has been criticized. However, after the start of the Club World Cup, the influence of the event proved that Infantino's decision was correct.

In Spain, the ratings of the Club World Cup surpass other prime time programs almost every day - whether there are Spanish club games or not, as long as Messi is available. On the 19th, the match between Miami International and Portugal's Porto was aired on Spain's TV5, with a rating of 12.9%, with an audience of more than 1 million.

After that, the draw between Miami International and Brazil's Palmeiras allowed the two teams to join hands to enter the quarterfinals, and Messi's team will face Paris Saint-Germain. Messi's Champions League title is also Infantino's dream. The team he will face is the team that failed to win the European championship with Neymar and Mbappe in the "Galaxy Battleship Age" at the Stadium in Princes Park in Paris. The game will be held at Atlanta's magnificent Mercedes-Benz Stadium, which can accommodate 71,000 spectators, and there will be many stories to tell in the locker room.

Messi just celebrated his 38th birthday and entered the eighth final with the second most successful score in the competition. "Leo (Messi) can play for many more years until his body or he doesn't want to play. He looks like a young man and still plays a decisive role in the game," said Spanish player Halli Alva, who plays with Messi for Miami International. The full-back also made it clear that the four former Barcelona players in Miami International "didn't come to Miami to retire." (Translated by Wang Meng)
