After a setback over the weekend, Lionel Messi and Inter Miami have to keep winning if they want any shot at winning the Supporters' Shield, beginning with Tuesday's home match against a Chicago Fire side looking for one more win to end its playoff drought. Miami (16-6-8, 56 points) still has two matches in hand on Shield-leading Philadelphia. But after a 1-1 draw to 12th place Toronto on Saturday, the Herons now need Philadelphia to lose one of its final two matches to have any shot at overtaking them for the best regular-season record. Miami is still sixth in the Shield standings, but would surpass the four others if it wins all four of their remaining matches as the team makes up contests rescheduled from earlier this season. In Toronto, Miami led 6-2 in shots on goal, but was held by a strong effort from goalkeeper Sean Johnson as the Reds earned a seventh consecutive draw. "I think their goalkeeper was the man of the match, so it's hard," Miami manager Javier Mascherano said after the game, in Spanish. "All we can do is move forward. We have four more games. So we will try to win all the games and try to finish strong." Messi registered an assist on Tadeo Allende's late first half goal, but failed to add to his MLS-leading total of 24 goals. Chicago (14-11-6, 48 points) will also face Toronto during its close to the season as the Fire tries to end an MLS-worst playoff drought of seven years. But first comes one of their stiffest tests of the season, visiting a Miami side that has only lost twice at home. The good news for manager Gregg Berhalter is his side's confidence should be high after a 2-0 home win against the Columbus Crew on Saturday. Andrew Gutman's tallied in the 25th minute and Hugo Cuypers added some insurance in the second half. The Fire would move above Columbus into eighth place in the Eastern Conference and clinch a playoff spot with a win Tuesday. A draw would move Chicago to the brink of a postseason berth, putting them six points up on New York Red Bulls with two matches to play, meaning one Red Bulls draw/loss or one Chicago win/draw in any of their final two matches apiece would end the drought. "I think our first half was the best first half, or the best half of soccer that we played all year so far," said Berhalter. "But we also know that we have a difficult week coming up … so we're going to have to be focused if we want to keep climbing." –Field Level Media

Tom Watson is United States golf royalty. And, along with Tiger Woods, he may be the most popular American golfer on both sides of the Atlantic. Watson won eight major titles, five of them overseas at the Open Championship. He was awestruck of the play by the victorious Team Europe in the 2025 Ryder Cup, but disgusted by the behavior of some of the American fans in attendance. On Monday, he posted an apology to the victors on X. "I'd like to congratulate @RyderCupEurope on their victory. Your team play the first few days was sensational. More importantly, I'd like to apologize for the rude and mean-spirited behavior from our American crowd at Bethpage. "As a former player, Captain and as an American, I am ashamed of what happened." Watson, 76, competed on four Ryder Cup teams and captained a pair. As a player, his teams won three of four competitions (1977, 1981, 1983) and tied one (1989). As captain, he led the winning American side in 1993 at The Belfry in England, but also suffered a setback in the 2014 matches in Scotland. The European team was subjected to jeering and heckling throughout the matches, even while preparing to hit shots. Rory McIlroy was the prime target, and even his wife Erica was subjected to taunts and a beverage being hurled at her. "I don't think we should ever accept that in golf," McIlroy said Sunday after the matches had concluded. "… I think golf should be held to a higher standard than what was seen out there this week. "There was a lot of language that was unacceptable and abusive behavior." The United States staged a furious Sunday rally, cutting decisively into the Europeans' 12-5 lead, but the visitors prevailed 15-13 to capture the Ryder Cup for third time in the last four meetings. The 2027 Ryder Cup is set to be played in Limerick, Ireland on Sept. 17-19. –Field Level Media

(Adds separate letter from groups, union statement) By David Shepardson WASHINGTON, Sept 29 (Reuters) – U.S. airlines warned on Monday that a partial federal government shutdown could strain American aviation and slow flights, as air traffic controllers and security officers would be forced to work without pay and other functions would be halted. Airline trade group Airlines for America, which represents United Airlines, Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, Southwest Airlines and others, warned that if funding lapses, "the system may need to slow down, reducing efficiency" and impacting travelers. The warning about air travel is the latest potential collateral damage from the political dispute in Washington over government funding. "When federal employees who manage air traffic, inspect aircraft and secure our nation’s aviation system are furloughed or working without pay, the entire industry and millions of Americans feel the strain," the group said. In 2019 during a 35-day shutdown, the number of absences by controllers and TSA officers rose as workers missed paychecks, extending checkpoint wait times at some airports. The FAA was forced to slow air traffic in New York, which put pressure on lawmakers to quickly end the standoff. The shutdown is expected to begin on Wednesday unless there is an agreement between the Democrats and Republicans on a government funding bill. Congressional Democratic leaders left a meeting with President Donald Trump on Monday without reaching a deal. In a separate letter from airline groups, aviation unions, manufacturers, airports and other aviation groups, the signers warned shutdowns force the FAA to "suspend air traffic controller and technician hiring and training, delay the implementation of safety initiatives, postpone maintenance and repair work to critical air traffic equipment, suspend air carrier pilot check rides, delay airworthy inspections for aircraft, defer the analysis of voluntary safety reporting, and suspend work on modernization programs." Separately, hundreds of air traffic control trainees at the FAA Academy in Oklahoma City could also be furloughed "causing significant delays in the training pipeline and worsen the ongoing air traffic controller staffing crisis," the National Air Traffic Controllers Association said. The FAA is about 3,800 controllers short of targeted staffing levels. (Reporting by David Shepardson; Editing by Leslie Adler)
