Lionel Messi just makes everything look so easy and he continues to amaze us.

Behind the scenes of a shoot for Pepsi, the Barcelona star pulled off an incredible trick with a bottle balance on top of a football.

Coolness personified, Messi struck the ball through a hoop and yes, you guessed it, the bottle flipped right up and landed flat.

However, was it real or a fake? We reckon Messi is so good it was probably done on the first take.

He may do this sort of thing everyday with absolute ease but the smile at the end says it all. Thirsty work it is not.

Messi wasn’t the only star to impress at a Pepsi shoot with his shooting.

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah volleyed a can off a tyre from distance.

Forget trophies and goal hauls, tricks like these are how you truly determine the best players on the planet.
