Inter Miami opened their 2026 preseason with a surprising result. During their tour in Peru, they faced Alianza Lima and suffered a heavy 3–0 defeat. As the 2025 MLS champions and one of North America’s strongest teams, Inter Miami were expected to win comfortably, but instead struggled for most of the match. Lionel Messi started the game and was substituted in the second half. After the final whistle, he returned to the pitch and gave his jersey to an Alianza Lima player, who became emotional and cried. It was later revealed that the player was a lifelong Messi fan with a large tattoo of Messi covering almost his entire leg.
