FC Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi pulled a surprise move during the 80th minute of Sunday's La Liga soccer match against Celta Vigo.
Messi was lined up for the penalty kick, but instead of taking the shot, he gently passed the ball off to an alert Luis Suarez, who sent a rocket past the goalkeeper to complete a hat trick on the day.
As if stopping a shot from Messi one-on-one wasn't impossible enough, now Barcelona is pulling off trick plays on penalty kicks. Celta Vigo's goalkeeper had no chance.
The goal gave Barcelona a 4-1 lead, and they would go on to score two more goals in the final minutes of the match for a 6-1 victory.
