A reunion of Messi and Barcelona for the first time after five years!
For the first time in the last five years, a reunion between Lionel Messi and his former club, Barcelona, is going to happen as Inter Miami, the MLS Cup champion, has announced a pre-season tour where the American club will play against Barcelona. Messi, who left Barcelona in May 2021 with a loss to Celta Vigo at an empty Camp Nou, has never played against his former clubs so far. Inter Miami’s pre-season tour, starting next month, has been scheduled for the first three pre-season matches across South America on Saturday. Miami will open its pre-season tour visiting Peru. In its second pre-season tour Inter Miami will be playing against Alianza Lima. Alianza is the second most successful side in Peru with 25 First Division titles, while also boasting an international competition cup in its trophy cabinet. Its next trip will be to Medellin for a match against Atlético Nacional, Colombia’s most successful football club, with 18 First Division titles, two Copa Libertadores titles, two Copa Merconorte titles, two Copa Inter-Americana titles, and seven Copa Colombia titles. The MLS Cup champion’s final trip will be against Barcelona de Guayaquil in its first-ever match against a team from Ecuador. Barcelona is the most successful side in the Ecuadorian top-flight league, with 16 titles.
Religious leader threatens to disrupt IPL matches if Mustafizur is seen in action in IPL!
Hindus in Bangladesh are maltreated constantly, and the wrath is increasing in India. Especially, the target is currently on the Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahaman, who has not yet shown any kind of protest against the oppression. He has not yet made any statement or posted on his social media account. Considering the perspective, religious leaders in Ujjain have warned that they may disrupt IPL 2026 matches if Mustafizur Rahman is allowed to play in the upcoming edition. The pacer has been bought by the Kolkata Knight Riders for ₹9.20 Crore. The seers said they could storm stadiums and damage pitches to stop matches involving Mustafizur Rahman, citing anger over recent attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh. Mahavir Nath, chief priest of the Rinmukteshwar Mahadev Temple, told reporters that their supporters would act because authorities ignore what they call the “persecution” of Hindus in Bangladesh. According to an IANS report, other religious organizations in India have issued similar warnings.
