Despite being Inter Miami’s opponent, Vancouver Whitecaps fans are very excited about the possibility of seeing this famous player play at BC Place on April 25.

Messi returned from injury, scoring consecutive goals to help Inter Miami overcome Los Angeles FC (3-2 on aggregate) to reach the semi-finals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup and stay at the top of MLS (American professional soccer league).

Since the beginning of the season on all fronts, Messi has now scored 8 goals and had 3 assists after only 9 matches for Inter Miami. The Argentine star continues to be present in Inter Miami’s away match against Chicago Fire FC at Soldier Field with a capacity of 62,500 spectators, taking place at 3:30 on April 14 in the 8th round of MLS.

This match is expected to welcome a large number of spectators, after Inter Miami Club and Coach Mascherano announced: “Excellent players like Messi, once healthy and fit, will definitely be present to compete”.

After the match against Chicago Fire FC, Inter Miami has one more away match in MLS against Columbus Crew on April 20. After that, they continue their journey to Canada to prepare for the meeting with Vancouver Whitecaps. Messi was present in this match, thereby creating great excitement for fans in the places where this famous player will play.

According to online ticketing site Ticketmaster, Vancouver Whitecaps FC has opened ticket sales for the match against Inter Miami, but after only a few days, more than 50% of the tickets at BC Place (with a capacity of 54,500 seats) have been sold.

It is worth mentioning that Vancouver Whitecaps fans still flocked to buy tickets despite the sky-high ticket prices, 10 times higher than the previous regular match ticket prices. Ticket prices currently sold by the Vancouver Whitecaps Club range from 152 USD (about 3.9 million VND) to 650 USD (16.7 million VND).

“Many fans are booking the remaining tickets that are still available, but many people are complaining that this is too high a price. In the match between Vancouver Whitecaps and Austin FC (winning 5-1 on April 13) also at BC Place, the ticket price is only at the normal level, which is 10 times less than the ticket price that this club is selling for the match against Inter Miami,” said Spanish newspaper AS .

However, the attraction of watching Messi play is so great and not available every time, causing many Canadian fans to “bite the bullet” and spend a large amount of money to buy tickets to BC Place Stadium.

Moreover, this is also a historic day for the Vancouver Whitecaps as they stand a chance to reach the final of the prestigious tournament of the North, Central American and Caribbean region (CONCACAF Champions Cup). If they achieve a favorable result, Vancouver Whitecaps will confidently look forward to the second leg at Chase Stadium of Inter Miami on May 1, AS added.
