When the Argentinian football team arrived in Saudi Arabia for Wednesday's football friendly, little did Messi know that he would have an 'all up in your face' encounter with the business end of a rifle.
The team's arrival at the airport was easy going, but while the rest of the team passed smoothly through, Messi however was crowded. In an attempt to shiield him from the surging crowd, one officer's rifle was shoved up Messi's face, and his reaction (pictured above) is one for the archives. Bet he'll be laughing about this with Thiago one day (that's if he still sees the funny side of it).
Can't really blame the guy; With a baby in hand and multi-million-dollar football contract in the pocket, I wouldn't want my face blown off either.
