MIAMI - Inter Miami coach Javier Mascherano was upbeat despite his Lionel Messi-led team drawing 0-0 with Egyptian side Al Ahly on June 14, as Fifa's new 32-team Club World Cup got off to a smooth start in front of 60,927 fans in Florida.
Messi was denied a storybook stoppage-time winner when he saw his curling shot from 20 metres out tipped onto the bar by Mohamed El Shenawy, as Miami piled on the pressure in the final minutes of the game.
"The truth is we leave with the feeling that we could have won it in the second half," said Mascherano.
"Going forward we have to do what we did in the second half, not have any fear, shed whatever baggage we had because when we play like that, we can play even with any team."
Al Ahly, who were cheered on by over 10,000 of their supporters, were left to rue a first-half penalty from Egypt international Trezeguet which was saved by Miami's Argentinian goalkeeper Oscar Ustari.
