Lionel Messi will miss Argentina’s World Cup qualifiers against Uruguay and Brazil over the next eight days because of an injury to his adductor.

Lionel Messi came on in the second half of the match between Inter Miami CF and Cavalier FC in the Concacaf Champions Cup Round of 16 second leg, scoring one of the goals in the 2-0 victory.
