Lionel Messi: Barcelona star can’t let his dog get the ball

Messi is seen in an Instagram clip dribbling his dog, Senor Hulk in a game of keepy ups in his garden.

Lionel Messi has spent his whole career, dribbling opponents and during a keepy up in his garden, he did the same thing to his own dog.

Messi is enjoying the last stretch of his break after the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia and although he is yet to resume preseason with Barcelona, the 30-year-old had a fun game of keepy ups with his dog.

In the game at his home garden, Messi can be seen playing the ball over his huge Dogue de Bordeaux, Senor Hulk.

Senor Hulk was eager to get the ball but Messi kept the ball away in the heartwarming video.

 

Messi had had Senor Hulk since he was gifted the Dogue de Bordeaux in early 2016.

 

Messi will get back to beating humans when he resumes pre-season with Barcelona ahead of the new season.

Barcelona are in the United States for their pre-season tour where they will face Roma and AC Milan in the International Champions Cup before facing Sevilla in the Spanish Super Cup.
