There was a lot of hype surrounding the Riyadh Season Cup clash between Lionel Messi's Inter Miami and Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr. The match was heavily hyped as the "Last Dance" between the two superstars, but nothing of the sort happened. Ronaldo did not even suit up for Al Nassr due to an injury that has already kept him out of action for several weeks, and Messi only came in as a substitute for the final seven minutes.
Apart from the absence of both stars during the match, it was hardly competitive as Inter Miami were thrashed 6-0 by their Middle Eastern counterparts. Messi's arrival in the final seven minutes of the match did little to change the disappointing result for the Herons.
