He is currently on holiday in Brazil after taking part in the Copa America.
The video shows the young futsal player dribbling past him and leaving him sat down on the ground.

Real will be a formidable prospect next season.
Already blessed with Vinicius and Jude Bellingham, they have been busy over the summer.
Kylian Mbappe has finally completed his move from Paris Saint-Germain.
And Brazil prodigy Endrick has also completed his move from Santos.
It has emerged that Vinicius convinced Mbappe, Bellingham and Endrick to join him in the Spanish capital.
Mbappe revealed: “The French players used to tell me [to come to Madrid] a lot.
“Vinicius also sent me messages, ‘Come to Madrid, we’ll score goals together’.
“I don’t need those messages to know that this is the best team in the world, but it’s a pleasure to feel loved.
“I’m looking forward to playing with the players. Vini, Bellingham… they’re great players, but they all are.
“I met some of my team-mates this morning. I’m very happy to be a Real Madrid player.”
Kylian Mbappe ‘snaps up £15m mansion in Beckham’s old neighbourhood’ next door to Real Madrid legend and Hollywood star
By Gerard Couzens
KYLIAN MBAPPE has reportedly splashed out more than £15million on a mansion in Madrid.
The French superstar, whose drawn-out transfer to Real Madrid has finally being confirmed, is said to have finalised the purchase late last month.
Respected Spanish daily La Razon says the house he has bought is in the exclusive Madrid suburb of La Moraleja, where David Beckham spent most of his time living when he was in the Spanish capital.
And it says his neighbours will include former Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos and his stunning model wife Pilar Rubio as well as Hollywood star Richard Gere and his Spanish publicist wife Alejandra Silva.
La Razon said Mbappe had considered the gated estate of La Finca where Jude Bellingham lives and Cristiano Ronaldo still owns property as an option.
But it reported the 25-year-old, who threw an extravagant party for 250 guests at a stylish Italian restaurant a short walk from the Eiffel Tower, ended up opting for La Moraleja a 15-minute drive from Real Madrid’s Valdebebas training complex because it was “more comfortable.”
Vini said in 2023: “I sent many messages to Bellingham last year. I was texting almost every day and I was telling him, “Come to Madrid’.”
And Endrick revealed to Marca: “Vinicius is a friend of mine. I was able to spend the holidays with him, I was able to see him and talk to him.
“He told me a lot of things about Real Madrid. He told me I’m going to be fine.
“It is a very good message knowing that it is the word of a player who is there and also Brazilian. By playing there he becomes an idol for me.
“It can become a mirror for many people. His word gave me even more strength to close it with Real Madrid.
“Before I went on vacation with him I had already closed it. So I arrived calmer. I talked to him, to the people there and I thank God for that.”
