VIDEO: Jamaican striker takes selfie with Lionel Messi

It's almost routine for supporters to take selfies with players when they invade the pitch, but the player-on-player selfie might be a first.

Following Jamaica's loss at the Copa America against Argentina, Deshorn Brown just couldn't pass up the opportunity to get a picture with one of the world's best players.

Brown approached Lionel Messi with his phone in-hand and asked the Argentine superstar to pose for a selfie.

Upon first glance, it appears as though Messi might be confused by the situation, perhaps thinking Brown had something to show him. Instead, his own face emerged on the phone as Brown snapped a picture.

Let's just hope this doesn't become a trend.
