Roy Keane meets Inter Miami superstars like Luis Suarez but fans reckon he ‘must be disappointed'
ROY Keane got to meet Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi not Lionel Messi while visiting Inter Miami's facility. The Corkman has jetted stateside to take in the knockout stages of the inaugural - 4 Meeting arguably the best striker of his generation isn't a bad consolation prize Credit: @intermiamicf 4 What a central midfield pairing this would've been in an alternate universe Credit: @intermiamicf 4 Jordi Alba also followed pal Messi to Florida Credit: @intermiamicf 4 The Argentine wizard turned 38 on Tuesday Credit: Getty The MLS outfit have a daunting last-16 match-up ahead of them against But at least Keane got to meet some of their most recognisable squad members while they're still in the competition and still in chipper form. Aside from a few followers noting he's bearing quite a resemblance to Shane reckoned: "Must be disappointed to not meet Messi."

And finally, someone else surmised en Espanol: "Roy livin la vida buena." Messi is set to face Most read in Football Inter Miami - sixth in the MLS Eastern Conference - face a formidable challenge against the Ligue 1 giants. David Beckham in hospital as Victoria shares picture of star with arm in sling & sweet 'get well soon daddy' message However, they appeared to lose momentum in a surprise defeat to Brazilian side Botafogo, and looked far from their fluent best in a 2-0 win over the Seattle Sounders at Lumen Field. Now into the knockout rounds, PSG are expected to find another gear, with a potential quarter-final clash against either Flamengo or The bookmakers clearly agree, pricing the Parisian giants at 1/6 to win in 90 minutes, while Jordi Alba described PSG as 'the best team in the world right now'. As for Inter Miami, they came close to topping Group A but conceded two late goals against Palmeiras, setting up this tough tie. It would have been Botafogo otherwise. ABOUT TO GET MESSI? Still, they have shown they can compete at this level - sandwiching a win over Porto between draws against Palmeiras and Al Ahly. The Florida-based side are unbeaten in six matches across all competitions, scoring 16 goals in that stretch - a solid run of form but unlikely to trouble their imperious opponents. Sorry if it sounds disparaging to all those Inter Miami supporters out there - but this could easily be a cricket score providing PSG can snap out of their two-game malaise. And they should be able to. The European champions looked a completely different class during their Champions League success, and their 5-0 final win over Inter Milan only highlights their ability to humble even the best. Suarez and Messi, both aged 38, should have their work cut out against such a young, quick, powerful and dynamic PSG side. Inter Miami have also shipped a colossal 29 goals in their last 13 games in all competitions. PSG, meanwhile, have scored 3+ goals in five of their last seven games.

How to watch USMNT vs Turkiye live: Stream link, TV channel, team news, prediction
Names will be made this summer in United States men's national team action, which starts when Mauricio Pochettino's team meets up with European powers Turkiye in East Hartford on Saturday. The international friendly pits the Yanks against a top-25 team for the first of two UEFA friendlies, with Switzerland coming soon, and good performances will show Pochettino a player's potential against similar opposition in the 2026 World Cup. Advertisement MORE — How will USMNT line up versus Turkiye? The nerves will be plenty for the USMNT players, who have chances to be center stage while Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, Timothy Weah, Antonee Robinson, and others are absent from the fold. But there are still a lot of regulars here, as Tyler Adams and Johnny Cardoso keep things steady and vicious in the midfield and Chris Richards gets more time as one of the leaders at the back. Richards returns to the team with an FA Cup on his resume, and Crystal Palace teammate Matt Turner is likely to also start for the USMNT. How to watch USMNT vs Turkiye, stream link, start time Kickoff: Saturday, June 7, 3:30pm ET Advertisement Location: Rentschler Field in East Hartford, Connecticut TV: Telemundo, Universo Stream en Espanol: Peacock USMNT team news, focus Who is going to seize the opportunities presented in the front four positions in the team? Patrick Agyemang, Haji Wright, Damion Downs, and Brian White all have claims of form and will feel they can claim the center forward spot with Folarin Balogun leaving camp through injury. Malik Tillman can show so much without Reyna, Weah, and Pulisic, and has to be thrilled at the prospect of orchestrating the attack in front of steady midfielders. The wings are very intriguing, as we'll learn how highly Pochettino already rates Diego Luna, and there are a bunch of talented options who could claim starting spots. Turkiye team news, focus The Crescent Stars essentially cruised through Nations League B, winning promotion with a decisive two-legged triumph over Hungary.

This is a squad based largely in Turkiye's top flight, but Real Madrid starlet Arda Guler and Juventus young star Kenan Yildiz — both 20 years old — are in the fold. Dortmund midfielder Salih Ozcan and Inter Milan hero Hakan Calhanoglu, the side's captain, lead the way in the midfield. Man United backstop Altay Bayindir and Trabzonspor keeper Ugurcan Cakir are the keepers with experience. This is a solid team with lots of experience. Many will know the names Merih Demiral, Caglar Soyuncu, Mert Muldur, Okay Yokuslu, and Orkun Kokcu. It's a huge test for this USMNT. USMNT vs Turkiye prediction Anything can happen in these friendlies once teams start making loads of subs in the second half, so it's almost more worthwhile to predict the score after 55 minutes or so. Either way, we'll venture chances in this one. We also expect a gritty midfield battle that sees both sides finding the ball on the perimeter. The hosts will be slight favorites to win here, but we'll take that down a notch. USMNT 1-1 Turkiye.

Argentina vs Brazil LIVE Updates, watch live, score, analysis, highlights
It's always a spectacle when Argentina and Brazil meet and this 2026 World Cup qualifier in Buenos Aires on Tuesday will be just as intense as always. WATCH LIVE — Argentina v Brazil For live updates and highlights throughout Argentina vs Brazil, check out PST's live blog coverage below… MORE — Latest scores, table in South America World Cup qualifying Goalscorers: None Martinez - Molina, Romero, Otamendi, Tagliafico - Paredes, Fernandes, Mac Allister - De Paul, Almada, Alvarez Krepski - Wesley, Marquinhos, Murillo, Arana - Andre, Joelinton, Rodrygo - Raphinha, Vinicius, Cunha Kick off time: 8pm ET Tuesday (March 25)Venue: Mas Monumental Stadium — Buenos Aires, ArgentinaTV channel and Streaming en Espanol: Telemundo Reigning World Cup champs Argentina need one more point from their final five games of qualifying to book their ticket to the 2026 World Cup. Lionel Scaloni's side beat Uruguay 1-0 on Friday and even with Lionel Messi missing from their squad this international window, Argentina have so many superstars. They are top of the table in CONMEBOL qualifying and would love to celebrate reaching the 2026 World Cup with a win against their bitter rivals Brazil and set off a big party in Buenos Aires. As for Brazil, they've got themselves back on track in qualifying and sit in third place in the table after their huge win against Colombia on Thursday. Vinicius Junior scored a 99th-minute winner in an extremely intense game and Dorival Junior has plenty of big players missing. Still, Brazil's squad is stacked and the trio of Raphinha, Vinicius and Rodrygo are so dangerous when they link up on the counter. Brazil know a win at Argentina would give them a chance of finishing above their bitter rivals with four games to go in qualifying. Obviously others have to step up with Messi out and now that Lautaro Martinez is out with a muscle strain too, the pressure is on Julian Alvarez to deliver. The young striker is having a great season at Atletico Madrid and will be fed chances by the likes of Alexis Mac Allister and Enzo Fernandez in midfield. Argentina look so solid defensively and in midfield and even though the likes of Lo Celso and Dybala are missing, they have plenty of creativity in attack. This is a total team unit and Argentina have total belief in what they're doing under Scaloni. Alisson has returned to Liverpool after suffering an injury in the win against Colombia as he came off following a nasty collision with Davinson Sanchez. That means Bento will start in goal and Brazil are already missing Ederson, Neymar, Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli, Casemiro, Danilo, Eder Militao, Lucas Paqueta, Richarlison and Antony from this squad. There are plenty of Premier League players in this squad with Joelinton, Joao Pedro, Matheus Cunha, Andre, Murillo and Savinho all available for this game, but key duo Gabriel and Bruno Guimaraes both picked up yellow cards against Colombia and are suspended for this game. Murillo, Cunha and Joelinton could all start in this game as Dorival Junior has plenty of options and will need to rotate his side after a draining win against Colombia. This is always intense and even with some big players missing for both teams, we can expect fireworks. Brazil have the edge in terms of the attackers they have available and we can expect them to get a huge win. Argentina 1-2 Brazil.
