What you get when you type Donald Trump & Leo Messi into Twitter

Even the most hardened football fan is likely to be distracted on Tuesday.


That’s because today, November 8, is the American election.

The American public has a simple choice: do they want Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton to be their new Commander-in-Chief.

As is the way of the world, football fans have somehow managed to linked Trump’s potential presidency to FC Barcelona superstar Leo Messi.

It’s fair to say that the social media updates linking Trump to Messi are generally negative towards the Republican nominee.

Read the best tweets linking Messi to Trump below.

Really cant believe Trump or Clinton will be taking over from Obama. That's like Barcelona replacing Messi with Robbie Savage. Mental.
