​Barcelona caused some controversy recently by taking an infamous 'passed' penalty against Celta Vigo, and despite putting Sporting Gijon to the sword 3-0, their players weren't taking any chances when Suarez stepped up to take a spot kick.





Suarez eventually missed the penalty, but two Sporting players paid particularly close attention to Messi in case they tried the routine again, much to the Argentine's amusement. A ​Barcelona fan page uploaded the video.









Messi can't help but chuckle as he watches these two opposition players stress about him, and it looks like they did a stellar job as Barca were restricted from repeating their trick and Suarez missed the penalty. Perhaps it should have been Messi taking the penalty again, but scoring it himself this time.





Luis Enrique's men won't have been too concerned, however, as Suarez made amends by scoring on 66 minutes.

Messi also got on the act with a brace in the first half, which just goes to show how difficult it is to stop these two from scoring.





Barcelona are comfortably leading La Liga by six points, with the nearest threat Atletico Madrid in second and a point ahead of bitter rivals Real Madrid.
