After weeks and weeks of hype, it looks like Houston will not get to see Lionel Messi play in person and he won’t be in Houston today.

There was no indication leading up to Sunday's game that Messi wouldn't travel to Texas with his Inter Miami teammates. But on Saturday, multiple reports indicated that the Argentine superstar stayed back in south Florida ahead of the match against the Dynamo at Shell Energy Stadium.

Houston Dynamo fans planning to attend Sunday's game against Inter Miami won't see their team face Argentinian star Lionel Messi. Because of his unavailability, they'll receive complementary tickets to another upcoming game.
