Lionel Messi is in the starting lineup for tonight’s game as Inter Miami faces the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium.

New England fans may be happy about new Patriots quarterbacks Drake Maye and Joe Milton, but their attention will be focused on another sport tonight.

More than 64,000 fans are expected in attendance on Saturday to see the GOAT – Messi, not Tom Brady – play on the home field of the NFL’s New England Patriots.

The game is expected to set a team attendance record for the Revolution, and potentially be one of the top three most attended soccer matches in Gillette Stadium’s 23-year history.

Inter Miami enters the New England match ranked first in the MLS Eastern Conference and needing to accumulate as many points as possible before Messi departs for Copa America 2024 with Argentina this summer.
