Messi's magic is at another level
Messi is seen performing an act with a football and a Pepsi bottle.
He placed the bottle on top of a football and then fired in a perfect shot into a hoop.
Interestingly, he generated enough back-spin on the ball which made the bottle flip a few times, and it landed on the floor exactly as placed on top of the ball.
