If we’re being honest, we weren’t expecting this.
Non-sporty famous people trying their hand at sport doesn’t always end very well. Take David Cameron’s feeble attempts at playing table tennis, for example…
Or celebrity chef (and Rangers legend) Gordon Ramsay being taken out by Teddy Sheringham at Soccer Aid…
So when we heard there was video footage knocking around of Neymar, one of the most gifted footballers on the planet, having a kick about with Justin Bieber, you know exactly what we were expecting.
We’ve no idea how this came about, but the Canadian pop star posted video of himself and the Brazilian enjoying a game of keepy-uppies in his back yard.
Don’t get us wrong, we’re not saying that Bieber is ready to replace Lionel Messi should his tax fraud trial go the wrong way, but we can all at least appreciate that he doesn’t make a tit of himself.
Neymar recently finished a hectic season with Barcelona, where his side sealed a league and cup double. The 24-year-old will represent his country at the Rio Olympics later in the year, and who knows – maybe Bieber can make a push for the Candian team? After all, we’re sure Tomasz Radzinski was never this good.
