Lionel Messi is regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time. After spending nearly two decades at FC Barcelona, the Argentine maestro is currently playing for French side Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). Recently, Messi’s wife Antonella Roccuzzo shared a video of the former playing football with their three sons — Thiago, Matteo and Ciro — in the backyard. In the video, Messi can be seen teaming up with his youngest son Ciro, for a backyard football match with his other sons.

“Deja ganar a los nenes (Let the kids win),” Antonella captioned the video on her Instagram story. The video was also shared later by ESPN FC.
