'He doesn't deserve this humiliation!' - Lionel Messi urged to LEAVE Inter Miami after PSG run rings around his 'inept' team-mates in first-half demolition at Club World Cup

Messi was handed a reunion in the last 16 of the Club World Cup as Inter Miami faced PSG, but things soon turned nightmarish as Neves gave the recent treble winners a sixth-minute lead before three quick strikes on the stroke of half-time made it 4-0.

Fans were pining for Messi to leave Miami at half-time. Mazi Rafe wrote: "Messi please for the sake of your fans, leave Inter Miami before the new season 😭🙏🏽 what's this wacko?"

Another fan, fendi, added: "I don’t get how Messi still wants to play for this team, offensively and defensively he’s playing with inept footballers. I guess he only cares about the Miami lifestyle and less about football now."

Ibukun Aluko posted: "I hope Lionel Messi doesn’t come back for the second half. He doesn’t deserve this humiliation from PSG, Beckham , you will surely pay for this ..😭😭😭"

kemboi added: "How Leo Messi has been winning titles with this Inter Miami team is something that needs to be studied. These players can't even do basic stuffs."

Neves added his second of the game in the 39th minute before Tomas Aviles scored an own goal and Achraf Hakimi then bagged the fourth. Inter Miami had squeezed through to the knockout stages after a win and two draws in their group-stage matches but the first half against PSG showed Javier Mascherano's side truly out of their depth against Luis Enrique's European champions.

French champions PSG are well on the way to booking a quarter-final against Flamengo or Bayern Munich.
