Barcelona star Lionel Messi had some fun during the UEFA Champions League group stage draw, photobombing his Real Madrid rival Cristiano Ronaldo with a cheeky smile.

The two were in Monaco for the draw alongside Luis Suarez, as the three were finalists for UEFA's player of the year award. While the accolade pitted the footballing icons against each other, it didn't stop the diminutive Argentine from having a laugh during the fancy occasion.

Messi won the award in the end, becoming the first player to do so twice, after winning La Liga, the Copa Del Rey, and the UEFA Champions League last season.
