Video: Messi, Neymar and Suarez dress in karate gear for bizarre new Qatar Airways advert

Strange

Conan Doherty

Lionel Messi, the karate kid.

The Barcelona superstar is front and centre of a new commercial for Qatar Airways but, whilst he’s still knocking around that piece of leather that he knows so well, someone has also managed to get him into martial arts gear, for whatever reason.

One of the most deadly attacks on the planet, the Barcelona front three, all appear in the new ad which, to be honest, we cannot figure out the concept of.

Neymar and Messi are seen dodging ninjas – as you do – and Luis Suarez’s cameo role at the end is just hilariously weird.

The whole thing hasn’t been released yet. Probably for the best.

Check this out. We haven’t a clue what is going on.
