Messi relishing reunion with PSG, Enrique

Miami's Barca alumni sing praises of PSG coach ahead of last-16 clash

MIAMI — Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano is hoping that Lionel Messi's memories of his unhappy time at Paris Saint-Germain will fire him up for Sunday's clash between the two sides at the Club World Cup.

Miami was a surprise qualifier from Group A after beating Porto and drawing with Palmeiras and Al Ahly, and now faces the daunting task of playing the recently crowned European champion.

Messi joined Miami after two seasons in the French capital, and made it clear he had not enjoyed his time with PSG.
