Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba have ultimately been punished for disobeying the MLS ("Major League Soccer") officials.

Miami "Inter" players were supposed to participate in the MLS All-Star Game this weekend, but they did not. Instead, they chose to rest.

For this reason, the good friends will be suspended for the upcoming "Inter" match against "FC Cincinnati," reports journalist Tomas Bogert.

Messi has been in fantastic form. In the last 5 matches, he scored as many as 8 goals.
