Messi Testimonial(?!)

On my fifth season as the manager for Wolverhampton, I got a really strange invitation..

I got invited by Barcelona to play in a Messi Testimonial!
Of course I accepted but I have NO idea why they picked me and my team?

I have two Argentinian players with only one national cap each so it can't be that.
I did play against them last year in the group stages of Champions League though. Lost both, 1-3 and 2-3. Still doesn't make any sense.

Have this ever happened to you? Do guys have any idea why Barcelona picked us?

i think testimonial opponents are just picked at random, your team came out of the hat on this occasion...

Guess so. But still very random.

or probably it is Messi own request, after looking at your avatar...he's tempted with you
