At the end of last month, Lionel Messi was in Dublin as his Barcelona side took on Celtic in the International Champions Cup.

A couple of weeks on and pre-season isn't over for Barca.

Tonight, they were taking on Serie A side Sampdoria in the Joan Gamper Trophy and the Argentina showed off some of his extraordinary skills.

First there's this overhead assist for Luis Suarez...
