Lionel Messi’s meeting with another famous football player made the internet explode (picture)

Lionel Messi met a man that can also call himself one of the world’s greatest football players.

JJ Watt, defensive end for the Houston Texans, is one of the NFL’s finest, and earlier shared a photo of his meeting with Messi.

The Barcelona man is currently in the US with the rest of his Argentina teammates and had the chance to meet the man that was named last year’s Defensive Player of the Year following a 7-0 spanking of Bolivia.

With such an obvious height difference, neither of the Argentines can claim to have come face-to-face with Watt.
