Barcelona teammates Lionel Messi and Neymar, were asked to go against each other, to see who has the better ball control, on the club’s online television channel.

Both the players, who have great skill on the ball and possess great control, were asked to be part of this challenge by club sponsors Audi, to determine which of the two could touch the ball more in a span of 60 seconds, and in the process, create more energy.
