The writing was on the wall.

A video from Leo Messi's early days has gone viral, showing an eight-year-old future Ballon d'Or winner scoring a brilliant individual goal, reports the Mirror.

It shows the young Argentinian flicking the ball over the head of his marker and lobbing the—admittedly seemingly disinterested—goalkeeper from near the halfway line.

Twenty years later, the Barcelona forward has over 300 goals in La Liga, seven Spanish league titles, four UEFA Champions League medals and a record five FIFA World Player of the Year trophies.

Still got it.
