Messi is suffering from a minor hamstring injury picked up in the Leagues Cup game against Necaxa but will not return against Orlando on Sunday, according to the MLS injury report.

Messi is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Orlando due to a hamstring injury he suffered last time out against Necaxa in the Leagues Cup. The injury is reportedly minor, but the Miami star will have to wait for upcoming fixtures to return as Sunday comes too soon for him. Fafa Picault and Tadeo Allende are the likely options to replace him on Sunday.
