So who would win when the King took on the pretender?

It’s been a memorable week for the godlike genius of Lionel Messi as the Barcelona man shattered the Champions League and La Liga record goalscorer records.

We’re certain that Messi has set himself new and achievable targets though like scoring a million goals, being the first footballer to play on the moon and re-uniting Wham!

Fresh from their 4-0 won over APOEL on Tuesday night, the whole Barcelona squad took part in an Audi-sponsored event on Thursday where Messi and Neyamr faced off in a keepy-uppy challenge.

Both players were given a ball for 60 seconds with the simple aim of taking the maximum possible touches in the time allowed.

Take a look.
