MLS News

Concacaf has launched an investigation into an incident that occurred in the final minutes of the Concacaf Champions Cup match between Los Angeles FC and the Colorado Rapids after Sergi Palencia allegedly called Chidozie Awaziem a derogatory term.

With Lionel Messi in the final year of his contract with Inter Miami, ESPN provides game-by-game analysis of the World Cup winner's performances.

Inter Miami CF beat Sporting Kansas City 3-1 on Tuesday night to advance to the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16 by a 4-1 aggregate final over two legs.

The goal gave Inter Miami a 2-0 lead on aggregate against Sporting Kansas City in the Concacaf Champions Cup.

Inter Miami CF players Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez have been fined an undisclosed amount by Major League Soccer for violating the "hands to the face/head/neck of an opponent" rule during the team's season-opening MLS match Saturday.
