Lionel Messi is a fearsome footballer for his opposition and he let his sons know that in a fun backyard football game, something that brought out the motherly love of his wife Antonella Roccuzzo. Even in the little fun activity at home, Messi did not show mercy towards his sons and put his silky skills up for display.
In the video shared by Antonella, Messi is seen combining with his youngest son Ciro against his two other sons, Thiago and Matteo. In the 2v2 game, Messi can be seen trying to keep the ball and aiding Ciro to find the back of the net.

In the beginning of the video, Messi got his son in the opposing team wrong footed with his ball control and passed it to Ciro. After a couple of passes, Ciro tried going for a shot, which was saved. When the ball was won from him and Thiago and Matteo tried to progress towards their target goal, Messi immediately shifted his weight, got the ball back and gave it to Ciro again.
Ciro then passed the ball back to him and the Argentine superstar scored the goal.
When the game restarted, this time with Thiago and Matteo progressing, their shot at goal was easily held off by Messi, who went for goal from his side to theirs but his on target shot was saved.
