New England Revolution Aim to Extend Win Streak in Matchup with Inter Miami
Messi’s fifth yellow card will not trigger a suspension because MLS reduces accumulation after five matches without a caution.
- On Wednesday, Lionel Messi received his 5th yellow card during Inter Miami's match against Cincinnati, but he will not face suspension for the upcoming New England Revolution game.
- Major League Soccer utilizes a Good Behavior Incentive that automatically reduces yellow card accumulation when players appear in 5 consecutive matches without receiving a caution.
- By completing three separate 5-match stretches without a yellow card this season, Messi reduced his accumulation total to 2 instead of the 5 he received Wednesday.
- The New England Revolution anticipated facing Inter Miami without Messi due to suspension, but the Revs will now encounter the Argentine forward in their Eastern Conference matchup.
- This incentive applies a maximum of 3 times throughout the MLS Regular Season, meaning Messi could use it twice more before the season ends.
