Arguably the greatest footballer of our generation, Lionel Messi possesses numerous qualities that make him a cut above the rest. Whether it's his balance, control or composure; Messi has got it all. But, if there's one strength that elevates Messi above his rivals, it is undeniably his dribbling.

He often takes the ball and shimmies past two or three men, operating within a kind of fermata, everything tends to slow and pause around him, and providing a reminder that he remains one of the great dribblers, master of the flip-flap, the surge, the amphetamine-crazed-millipede shift of feet.

While we all have been witness to his artistry with the feet, his footwork, and this time, on the dance floor is what has got the social media buzzing.

The 30-year-old Barcelona talisman was seen showing his fancy footwork on the dance floor during the reception of his high-profile wedding to childhood sweetheart Antonella Roccuzzo on Friday. While mobile phones strictly prohibited at the ceremony, some guests still managed to take photos and record the video footage of the couple.

The video has gone viral with 6.5 million views and almost 43,000 comments on the Instagram post so far.

The ceremony, which was attended by some of the most popular names in international football, has been labelled as the "wedding of the century" by the Argentine media. It was held in Rosario, the northern port city where Messi (30) and his bride (29) met when the popular footballer was just nine years old.

Ever since that day, the two have been inseparable and also have two sons together. At the age of 13, Messi moved to Spain and has lived in Barcelona since then.

Following their wedding, Messi will have some time for the honeymoon before linking with Barcelona for the Catalans' pre-season tour of America next month.
