http://www.espnfc.com/blog/the-toe-poke/65/post/3122323/lionel-messi-lookalike-reza-parastesh-causes-panic-in-streets-of-iran

Quote from article so you don't have to click:

Quote:
This one comes from an unlikely football source, Iran, where a 25-year-old student was detained -- yes, detained -- over the weekend for looking too much like Barcelona and Argentina superstar Lionel Messi, if you can believe it.

We'll let that sink in a bit. ...

But it's true! Reza Parastesh looks so much like the five-time Ballon d'Or winner that police in the city of Hamaden brought him to their station and impounded his car because of the commotion he was causing on the streets.

Apparently, too many people were stopping and requesting to take pictures with Parastesh, who has become a bit of a star and, to quote the BBC, "is fully booked with media interviews and has even landed modelling contracts."

Who is behind his sudden burst of fame, you might wonder? A stage father, of course, who was the first to put him in a Barca No. 10 shirt and snap a photo some 10 months ago. The rest is Doppelgänger history.

"Now people really see me as the Iranian Messi and want me to mimic everything he does," Parastesh, who says he is working on some football tricks, told AFP. "When I show up somewhere, people are really shocked.

"I'm really happy that seeing me makes them happy, and this happiness gives me a lot of energy."


Wtf.

He may look like him on that picture with that beard, but on the others there's barely any resemblance at all.

Damn, Dani Alves must have trained inside Buffon's time chamber again

I feared the team could underestimate the threat, but fortunately aside from the first minutes there was the right approach. Everyone did his part, there were too many wasted chances but it's alright, now the long wait can commence. Juve and Higuain together playing a final, we'll really need something special, perhaps some voodoo magic to bring that cup home Very Happy

I'm really afraid Juve is going to make it (knock all the wood in sight ixi): this year everything goes fine to Juve or how we say in italian "le gira l'acqua per l'orto".
Buffon Chiellini and Bonucci never had better than this, not a good year overall for Dybala but he gets back for Barcelona and best match of his year, El Pipita sucks this year in Champion's but he gets back to goal right when it's needed with Monaco, Alves just sucked right until this moment when he decides to get back to his old levels.
