In a recent announcement, the New England Revolution Club, which was once known as the team of Lee Nguyen, a Vietnamese-American star, has revealed that it has successfully sold more than sixty thousand tickets for the match between Messi and Inter Miami, which will take place on April 28 at Gillette Stadium in the Major League Soccer tournament.
“The demand for tickets to watch the New England Revolution match against Inter Miami skyrocketed because of the anticipation of Messi coming to Gillette Stadium,” according to the British newspaper the Daily Mail. The New England Revolution Club has stated that they only have fewer than 5,000 tickets left for this match, despite the fact that they have already sold more than 60,000 tickets. They intend to continue selling tickets for this match in the near future. However, due to the enormous purchasing power, it will most certainly be “sold out” in the near future.

Inter Miami has created a big draw for American fans as a result of Messi’s presence, along with other elite players such as Busquets, Jordi Alba, and Suarez. As a result, the New England Revolution Club has been forced to employ the whole capacity of Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. It is sufficient to have a seat capacity of up to 64,628. When this team played football matches in the past, they frequently only used a percentage of the capacity of this stadium, which was approximately 20,000 seats.
A new record for the number of people watching a team match was established by the New England Revolution, which surpassed the previous mark of 61,316 people when they played in the championship game. The New England Revolution set a new record for the number of people watching a team match, which now stands at about 64,628 people. The Los Angeles Galaxy were defeated 1-0 in the Major League Soccer Cup in 2002.
As a result of Messi’s influence, the New England Revolution match versus Inter Miami will attract a record number of spectators, which will beat the average of 63,018 people that attend a match performed by the New England Patriots, a professional American football team, in the National Football League (NFL). The venue for both teams’ games is Gillette Stadium.

“The strange thing is that American audiences are still buying tickets in advance to watch matches with Inter Miami playing in the MLS tournament, even though there is no guarantee that Messi will be present to play or not. The famous Argentine player has Missed at least 3 recent matches of Inter Miami due to injury. Coach Tata Martino only hopes that he will return to play in the quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup on April 4 and April 11. After about 2 weeks, fans New England Revolution hopes Messi will be present to play,” the Daily Mail expressed.
In a conversation on the Big Time podcast platform recently broadcast, Messi confided: “At the sports level, I am lucky enough to achieve all my dreams and the truth is that I cannot ask for more. I try to enjoy everything, with a lot of things professionally and personally, as well as with family and friends.

I also know that the moment I feel like I’m no longer ready to play, that’s when I’m no longer happy or able to help my teammates. I criticize myself, I know when I’m good, when I’m bad, when I play well and also when I play badly. When I feel I have reached that step, I will do it without thinking about my age. If I feel okay, I will always try to continue playing because that’s what I like and what I know how to do.”
“So far, I haven’t thought about retiring. Right now, I’m trying to enjoy every day, every moment without thinking about the future. I don’t have anything clear yet, I hope “I can continue to play for a while longer, that’s what I like. When the time comes, I will definitely find the right path for me, what I like and a new role,” Messi shared.
