Life in Plastic, it’s Fantastic. Seeing Messi play in a baseball stadium will never cease to amaze. One of those things not even the sickest of sickos had on their bingo cards. But that wasn’t the main storyline yesterday. The day started with NYCFC fans throwing stuff at the Inter Miami bus, flipping off the visitors, and unfurling a gorgeous tifo speaking out against “plastic fans.” They also added a phrase urging people to support their local clubs, even when Messi comes to town. It was a proper reception by the New Yorkers, and the soccer gods must’ve loved it. Trailing 1-0 at the death, NYCFC found a last-minute equalizer, and it felt like a euphoric reward for everything they’d done on and off the pitch. Poetic justice if you will. No one in that baseball stadium will ever forget yesterday.
