Pique was chosen as the winner of the prize and dedicated it to his parents, and at this moment, he became emotional. 

For a short while he lost his voice, hititng his hand on his leg several times. And that's where his pal Messi decided to take the mick. 

"How's the quadricep Geri? I hope it's ok!" wrote Messi on Instagram, then praising the defender for winning.

"I congratulate you for the prize!" he added, along with a video of Pique dedicating the award to his parents.
