Kevin-Prince Boateng on FIVEUK: โI never saw Messi in the gym. He came in, they gave him massages and he started playing basketball.
Before going out to warm up to play against Liverpool in the Champions League Semifinal, we were in the locker room, he was sitting there with his cell phone, while they were giving him massages. Two minutes before leaving he stood up and put on his boots. In the warm-up, all controls, passes, he played to hit the crossbar.
"We returned to the locker room, the coach was talking about the latest tactical adjustments, he was on his cell phone doing FaceTime. 30 seconds before going out on the field he put on his jacket, came out and goal, goal, goal. Double and we won 3-0. He is the only one in the world who can do that.โ
