The man can do just about anything.
Barcelona made light work of their rivals Real Madrid as they won a festive El Clasico 3-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Luis Suarez opened the scoring before Lionel Messi drove home a penalty after Dani Carvajal was sent off for stopping a goal with his hands.
Then, just to rub salt into Madrid's wounds as fans streamed for the exits, Barca wrapped it up with a third in injury time.
Messi, who spent much of the second-half leaving Madrid defenders in his wake, actually assisted Barca's third with only one boot on. The Argentine star is so damn good, he laughs in the face of the conventional two-boot approach.

Messi, who created an incredible nine goalscoring opportunities for his teammates at the Bernabeu, showed his immense creative prowess by laying on the third for Aleix Vidal despite losing his right boot.
It came off after Marcelo challenged for the ball, but it didn't matter to the Barca forward, who skipped to the by-line before pulling the ball back to his team-mate.
As you can see in the image below, Messi celebrates with Vidal while not giving a moment's thought about where his other boot is. Madrid fans will tell you it shouldn't have counted because the ball crossed the line before he crossed, but it's still impressive.
