Lionel Messi forced his Argentine and Barcelona teammate Javier Mascherano to fall like a tree in an attempt to stop the genius from rounding him up during a training session

Lionel Messi has made the headlines again after he dribbled past Javie Mascherano in a special move that compelled the latter to fall like a tree.

Picking the ball up, Messi went at goal before completely wrong-footing Javier Mescherano defender - so much so he left the former Liverpool midfielder on his backside.

He did similar thing to German and Bayern Munich defender, Jerome Boateng in the semi-finals of the 2014-15 UEFA Champions League to make the world Cup winner look like an ordinary player.

Jamie Carragher described Boateng as looking like a "baby in a playpen" during analysis on Sky Sports.

Liam Brady said that the German international fell "like an oak tree".
