VIDEO: Arsenal youngster recreates Lionel Messi’s controversial penalty

JOE

Just when we thought we’d heard the last about Lionel Messi’s penalty, this happens…

Arsenal youngster Trae Coyle has imitated the Barcelona star, passing his penalty to a team-mate in the same way that Messi presented Luis Suarez with a chance to score against Celta Vigo recently.

The 15-year-old certainly executed it more successfully than Thierry Henry and Robert Pires did all those years ago.
