Neymar vs Mark Zuckerberg: it’s the Facebook Messenger keepy-uppy challenge

Don’t look now folks, but celebrities are now challenging one other to something that doesn’t involve ice water — the Keepy Uppy Challenge.

Based on a game on Facebook Messenger (inspired by the recent Euro 2016 Championships), Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently challenged actual Brazilian and Barcelona footballer Neymar to a game of digital keepy-uppy. Neymar, this week, accepted.

In real life, the winner would be a foregone conclusion, but on Facebook Messenger, Mark Zuckerberg is a bit of a Keepy Uppy master.

Neymar posted his attempt to Instagram this week, and the video has since garnered over 1.2-million views.

To perpetuate the latest celebrity challenge craze, Neymar challenged Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton, who will likely challenge another. We could be witnessing the beginnings of a new ice bucket challenge, with less cold water this time, of course.

If you fancy a go at beating Mark Zuckerberg’s healthy score yourself, head on over to Facebook Messenger and send someone a football emoji. The game should automatically spring into life, and you’ll automatically loose a good three hours of your day.

Be sure to post your record score below.
