Lionel Messi flashed his ridiculous touch by kicking a ball over 60 feet and controlling it in 3 bounces

It's no secret that a scorer and passer as good as Lionel Messi has a dazzling touch.

One Japanese game show seems to be out to test just how well Messi can control the ball. In 2015, the show had Messi kick a ball over a 60-foot bar, then control it on the other side.

This time, they pushed the limit, raising a banner to what appears to be over 66 feet, showing it next to the Great Sphinx.
