Barcelona star Ivan Rakitic showed off his footballing skills in style, as he and his teammates tried to kick balls into a basketball net, as part of a Gillette challenge posted on YouTube.

The Croatian, aside from his outrageous foot basketball technique, has become a key part of Barcelona's success in recent years and has three assists so far this season in 16 outings.
Barcelona travel to the Bernabeu on Saturday to face Real Madrid in what is expected to be a fiercely contested Clasico.
The Catalan giants will be looking to extend their lead at the top with a win against Los Blancos on Saturday, which would see them go 14 points ahead of their rivals.
