Lionel Messi was cleared after a review by ​Major League Soccer determined that ‌he did not violate any policy ​when he followed ⁠the match officials through a doorway following Inter Miami’s season-opening 0-3 defeat at LAFC, a league spokesperson said on Sunday, Reuters reported. 

MLS reviewed the incident, which occurred on ⁠Saturday and was captured ⁠on video, and determined the area Messi entered was not the referees’ locker ​room, nor ‌was it a restricted area, and therefore no policy was violated, the spokesperson told  Reuters.

In the video, Inter Miami’s Luis ​Suarez is seen attempting to restrain Messi by the ⁠arm but the Argentine still managed to walk through the doorway in the bowels of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum before re-emerging moments later, according to Reuters.
