The world’s toughest job now belongs to whoever has the daunting task of teaching Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez’s children how to play soccer.

The Barcelona FC superstars were seen watching their kids, who were dressed in strikingly similar Barcelona uniforms, play the game they have mastered.

Earlier this year, Messi acknowledged that his son did not really care for football.

“He does not like (football) much, really. He goes because Benja [Suarez’s son] and some schoolmates go, but he is not a fan,” Messi said on the Uruguayan show Por la Camiseta. “He’s not like [Suarez’s son] who is all day with the ball.”

Messi and Suarez both sit atop the scoring leaderboard in La Liga with a combined 63 goals this season.

It is unclear if either of them brought orange boats or freezies for the kids after practice.
