Lionel Messi's bodyguard just picked up a new trick from ONE Lightweight Submission Grappling World Champion Kade Ruotolo, and he wasted no time putting it to good use.
The meeting happened by chance in Los Angeles, California, where a mutual sponsor event put Kade and his twin brother, reigning ONE Welterweight Submission Grappling World Champion Tye Ruotolo, in the same room as Yassine Cheuko, the French-Tunisian security professional who rarely leaves the soccer player's side.
Kade was the one on camera, but Tye was right there for the whole thing.
In the clip, the 23-year-old Tenore athlete breaks down a standing Mir Lock for Cheuko, and the video ends with the bodyguard applying the very same hold on him and forcing a tap.
Ultimately, the welterweight submission grappling king and his twin brother walked away with a positive experience.

The Stillwater girls soccer team's hopes for reaching the state semifinals ended Thursday with a 2-1 loss to Mounds View during a state quarterfinal match at Spring Lake Park high school.
The Panthers struck first with 17 minutes left before halftime after midfielder Ida Wynn sent the ball cross net from the Ponies goalie Elin Hendrickson.
Mounds View took 6 shots on the Stillwater goal, coming up successful once in each half.
The second, and game deciding goal, found the net with 32 minutes left in the second half. Defensive midfielder Molly Nystrom beat Hendrickson at the net.
"It felt really awesome to score. I don't score a lot because I play center back," Nystrom said.

Florida State soccer beat Duke, 2-1, on Thursday, Oct. 29, at the Seminole Soccer Complex for the program's 500th win.
It's a critical win for the Seminoles (8-2-3) as the program currently sits just outside of the top six in the ACC standings. Those six programs make the ACC tournament. With results elsewhere in the league, FSU sits in eighth place, level on points with Miami, which it faces on Sunday, and one point behind Louisville in sixth.
First-half goals from Shaniel Buckley and Tanner Strickland put the Seminoles ahead in the opening 15 minutes. Both goals came within minutes of each other.
Moments after a Kate Ockene save forced a Duke corner kick, Buckley dribbled the length of the field before she calmly slotted her finish home past Blue Devil keeper Molly Vapensky in the 10th minute.
In the 13th minute, Strikland was first to react to a corner kick fired into the box, and her volleyed strike deflected off a Duke defender and into the net to double the lead. The Seminoles remained in control for much of the half, but errant communication between Ockene and Bridget Mutipula gifted the Blue Devils a goal.

Oct. 29—EAST GRAND FORKS — Chay Boespflug wanted to try something new.
The East Grand Forks senior played football until eighth grade but stepped away during his freshman and sophomore years, focusing on soccer instead.
Ahead of his junior year at East Grand Forks, though, Boespflug considered a return to the gridiron.
"I was like, 'Why not try kicking?'" Boespflug said.
Boespflug joined the football team last season and took on kicking duties. This offseason, he began taking more reps on both offense and defense during practice.

Harpeth Hall outlasted Christ Presbyterian Academy, 2-1, to capture the 2026 TSSAA girls soccer state championship in Division II-AA at Finley Stadium in Chattanooga on Oct. 29.
It's the first championship for Harpeth Hall since 2021 and the program's third overall, including its 2013 ******* le. It was the Honeybears' first state tournament appearance since 2024 and first state championship appearance since 2023.
Harpeth Hall upset three-time defending state champion Baylor, 1-0, in the semifinals on Oct. 28 to advance to the championship.
Alexa Sarb and Olivia Grace Akatue scored Harpeth Hall's two goals. But it was CPA's Livi Langan that opened the scoring with a goal 7:31 into the game. That came off a CPA corner kick 30 seconds earlier as CPA chased its first state ******* le since 2018.
Harpeth Hall (17-8-4) would slowly build momentum after giving up that opening goal, taking four of the next five shots in the game before Akatue's equalizer in the 27th minute off an ******* ist from Sarb.

PARIS (AP) — The weekend of riots and looting in France did not spare soccer clubs Marseille and Lille.
The Ligue 1 teams said their shops have been vandalized during the protests against rising living costs and poor conditions in schools. Over half a million mainly peaceful protesters took to the streets on Saturday but small groups of people set fires in the streets and looted businesses in Paris, Lyon, Marseille and other cities.
Marseille said in a statement on Monday the looters caused "significant damage" to its official store located on La Canebière — the southern port city's most famous avenue — which has been temporarily closed.
Up north, Lille's city center store "suffered extensive damage and widespread looting," the club said, adding that the shop will remain closed until further notice.
Lille thanked "everyone who has offered their support over the past few hours — first and foremost, our store employees, but also the many passersby, whether supporters or not, who spontaneously stepped forward to offer their help, practical ****** istance and comfort."

OLD LYME — Vivian Boller was a freshman already playing regularly for the Lyme-Old Lyme girls soccer team when she brought a request to her coach.
"She was playing outside midfield and she wasn't taking any throw-ins," coach Caroline Wallace said. "And she came up and said, 'Caroline, I want to take the throw-ins,' and I was like, 'Go for it.'"
It may seem like a simple request from a young soccer player, but there was a little more to it. Boller was born without a left arm, and in soccer, throw-ins are done with both hands on the ball.
"I have a vague memory of it," Boller said, "but it's still in the back of my mind. Playing for my (youth) team, I remember going up for a throw-in because my coach really liked to play quick, once the ball goes out, you grab it and play it immediately. I went to grab it and the other coach said something along the lines of, 'She can't do that. That's not legal.'"
No one, though, can tell Vivian Boller, now a junior, she can't do something and expect it to stick. It hasn't been an issue in high school, where Boller now plays center midfield with a traditionally powerful girls soccer program. She also plays guard for the basketball team and competes in sprints and jumps for the two-time state champion girls track team.

Gluckstadt is now less than two months away from welcoming its first multimillion-dollar sports venue.
The TD Select Baseball facility appears to be opening within six weeks, with the state-of-the-art $10 million baseball and soccer complex at 589 Stout Road set to be finished by late November.
Both TD Select owner Ty Dean and commercial estate developer Lee Sahler confirmed the November timeline after installing and watering the grass at the venue's outdoor baseball fields.
"The grass is down already and now we're just looking to get the lights and fence up so weather permitting we should be open within six weeks," Sahler told the Clarion Ledger.
Conceptualized as a youth development complex, TD Select Baseball will feature a 10,000-square-foot training indoor facility equipped with 10 batting cages.

Darien celebrated three state championships in girls sports last school year: field hockey, girls ice hockey and girls lacrosse.
Adriana Gromelski was an integral part of all three as she earned GametimeCT All-State First Team honors in each sport and was named GametimeCT Female Athlete of the Year.
In all, Gromelski has been part of six state **** les during her time with the Blue Wave.
"Only one team can win it. It's a moment not everyone gets to have," Gromelski said. "I'm super grateful I've gotten to experience it multiple times."
With that in mind, the senior star decided to switch sports this fall for a new high school experience. Instead of helping Darien defend its CIAC field hockey crown, Gromelski switched to soccer. It's a sport she played from elementary school through eighth grade.

Utah Royals FC fell 2-0 at America First Field against the Kansas City Current on Saturday evening in front of 10,809 fans, the club's second-highest attendance this season. Unable to secure the victory, the squad will now be forced to wait yet another week to officially clinch its first playoff berth in club history.
While the Royals were unable to earn the result in the battle at home, Real Salt Lake traveled to Kansas City, earning a 3-1 victory to lift itself to a second road win in the 2026 season. The victory earned the visitors an important three points to keep the push for the postseason alive in the doubleheader evening for Utah professional soccer against Sporting Kansas City.
As the Utah Royals took the pitch on Saturday evening the home side was without the heartbeat of its midfield as **** anese star Mina Tanaka was out due to a hamstring injury sustained while on international duty. URFC captain Paige Cronin earned an impressive milestone Saturday against the Current, starting in her 100th NWSL match.
Iron woman Kate Del Fava returned to the pitch following her USWNT debut as a second-half substitute in Tuesday's 2-2 draw against Spain. The defensive wall not only leads the Royals in possessional passes and clearances but, made her 80th consecutive start today, the longest active streak for a single club. Del Fava has played 7,661 straight minutes, the second longest streak in club history while also having played every one of the 7,211 minutes Utah has played as a team in 79 games since the Return to Royalty in 2024.
Real Salt Lake got off to a near perfect start against Kansas City to earn just its second road win of the 2026 MLS season with goals by French attacker Morgan Guilavogui and Spanish Rookie Sergi Solans in under 15 minutes. The score by the Frenchman in the 12th minute marked his third of his first MLS season, while 2026 RSL Golden Boot leader Solans netted an impressive 12th MLS goal of his rookie season to double the visitor's lead.

Exes Tarek El Moussa and Christina Haack got some backlash after surprising daughter Taylor with a $150,000 BMW X5 M ahead of her 16th birthday. Now, Tarek, 45, and wife Heather El Moussa have revealed why the trio splurged on the lavish gift.
"Well, it turns out, as a father, when your daughter kicks [expletive], gets a 4.2 GPA, is MVP of the soccer team, you really want to surprise her," the HGTV star explained to E! at the Virtual Reali-Tea Awards in New York on October 6. "So, dad, stepmom, mom, we all surprised her."
"She's a good girl. She deserves it. She works really hard," added Heather, 39.
"She's the best kid. She didn't ask for it. We gave it to her. There's a big difference," Tarek continued, as the Selling Sunset star said the teen was "very grateful" and "cried" upon receiving the pricey present.

Halle Berry spent Sunday with her son, Maceo, before asking a Los Angeles judge to restore the parenting arrangement she previously shared with ex-husband Olivier Martinez. Her request, filed Monday, Oct. 5, seeks a return to their 2023 agreement for 50/50 custody, Entertainment Weekly reported.
A temporary restraining order issued Oct. 1 changed Berry's parenting time but allowed her to continue seeing her son during specified daytime hours. The order covered both Martinez and Maceo, according to records reviewed by PEOPLE.
Martinez sought protection after alleging that Berry physically attacked Maceo during a Sept. 26 dispute. Her attorney, Marina Beck, denied his account and called the filing "entirely meritless and deliberately misleading."
Berry, 60, was accompanied on the Oct. 4 visit by her fiancé, musician Van Hunt. They spent time together one day before Maceo's 13th birthday.
An eyewitness told PEOPLE that Berry chatted with Maceo at a Los Angeles Sky Zone before he joined an indoor soccer game. She and Hunt watched from nearby. When a fan approached for a selfie, Berry declined because she was spending time with her child. TMZ also published BACKGRID footage of the trio shopping at Best Buy that day.

Famous pals Tom Cruise and David Beckham share plenty of interests, says a source, including a love of beauty treatments.
"They're both obsessed with skincare," the source tells the National Enquirer. "Not a lot of men are as passionate about it as they are, so it's something that they've really bonded over."
According to the source, the retired athlete, 51, and the Top Gun star, 64, aren't simply trading grooming tips, either.
"Tom and David have been going for facials together," spills the source. "They've both gotten some pretty intense laser treatments too."
Thanks to the former soccer pro's wife, Victoria Beckham, "they have the numbers for all the best dermatologists and estheticians and hairstylists," adds the source. "And they have been putting them to use."

On Holding's (ONON) entry into the soccer category through a partnership with World Cup champion Kylian Mbappé marks the latest step for the company as it aims to tread its own path as a premium global sports brand.
The Swiss sportswear company signed Mbappé, whose contract with Nike (NKE) expired this past summer after seven years, beating out competitors such as Adidas (ADS.DE) and Under Armor (UA) for a partnership with the soccer superstar.
The company did not disclose the size of the deal. As part of the announcement, soccer pundit Thierry Henry was named the company's director of football, after working with the brand since 2025.
"The announcement is a direct challenge to Nike and Adidas (which have a near-monopoly in the category)," Evercore ISI ******* yst Michael Binetti wrote in a note to clients. "We expect a major investment in a large global category will be a positive near-term catalyst for the stock."
On stock rose slightly after the deal was announced, but shares remain down 40% year to date amid a challenging retail environment for sneaker stocks. Nike's stock fell 2% on Friday.
