'How to mark Messi? An elbow to the head!': Felipe Melo

"For me, Leo Messi is one of the best players in history. He is an icon, he won six Ballons d'Or," former Brazil international Felipe Melo has told TyC Sports.

"How would I mark Messi? An elbow to the head! What do I have to do with Messi? There's nothing to do. Messi is from another planet."

In total, Messi and Melo faced off three times in their careers, with Leo winning two of them. It appears that even an elbow to the head didn't help Felipe stop the Paris Saint-Germain man, but at least he's being honest.
