Lionel Messi, who returned from injury last weekend, suffered a setback and had to miss the Leagues Cup quarterfinal against Tigres.

Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano continued to instruct from the stands after his ejection, including appearing to make a call to an assistant.

Luis Suarez scored twice on penalty kicks and Inter Miami overcame Lionel Messi’s absence to beat Tigres UANL from Mexico, 2-1, in a Leagues Cup quarterfinal Wednesday (Thursday in Manila).
