Lionel Messi: Fans think PSG star wasn’t happy with Sergio Ramos in training
There’s a chance it’ll never feel normal watching Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos playing and training together at Paris Saint-Germain.
They were fierce rivals for so many years during their spells at Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively.
Messi must have more than a few battle scars on his body from his El Clasico battles with Ramos, who was never afraid to turn to the dark arts in an attempt to thwart the legendary Argentine forward.
On the flip side, Messi embarrassed Ramos on more than a handful of occasions with his extraordinary ability. No matter how hard the Spaniard hit him, Messi would dust himself down and go again moments later.
During an open PSG training session on Sunday, ahead of Monday’s pre-season fixture against Gamba Osaka, Messi and Ramos rewound the clock to their Clasico days at one point.
Messi skinned the centre-back with a beautiful touch before lashing the ball into the bottom corner with his right foot.
But the South American initially stumbled after going past Ramos, who caught him with his outstretched boot.
After scoring, Messi walked back and was seen having words with Ramos.
