In a recent MLS match that ended in a dramatic 2-2 draw, Inter Miami's star players Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez have been fined for their actions on the field. The incident occurred during the game against New York City FC on February 22, where Messi was seen grabbing the neck of an opposition coach, a clear violation of MLS policies regarding physical conduct towards opponents and staff.

Luis Suarez, another key player for Inter Miami, was also involved in a separate but similar incident, where he pinched the neck of opposing player Birk Risa during halftime. These actions have led both players to face fines from the MLS Disciplinary Committee, although the exact amounts have not been disclosed.

This event has sparked a lot of discussions about player conduct and sportsmanship in professional football. Messi, an eight-time Ballon d'Or winner, has generally been regarded as a role model in the sport, making this incident particularly noteworthy.

The MLS has strict policies to ensure the safety and integrity of the game, and this recent enforcement highlights their commitment to these standards. Fans and analysts are now watching closely to see how this will affect the reputation and performance of these high-profile players as the season progresses.
