Two days before the biggest game of their season, you might expect the Barcelona players' focus to be firmly fixed on Saturday's Clasico.

Barca travel to the Santiago Bernabeu to face arch-rivals Real Madrid in a top-of-table clash but you wouldn't have guessed it after watching this video.

Six of Barcelona's first team stars have taken part in a FIFA 16 Pro Player Tournament as Neymar, Jordi Alba and Marc-Andre ter Stegen took on Dani Alves, Arda Turan and Claudio Bravo.

Neymar's team played wearing Barcelona's away kit while Alves and Co lined up in the traditional home strip for the fun-fuelled contest.

In an animated match Neymar's side took control and opened the scoring in just the second minute of the match before a short break in play as the Brazilian received a phone call from his father.

It didn't take long for the away team to double their advantage prompting the trio to celebrate by posing with a selfie stick and leaving Alves vexed. 'Why am  playing this? I prefer reading books,' the right back shouts in anger.

Alba makes it 3-0 with a brilliant chip as Alves says, 'Hey! But you said you didn't know how to play', before the home team have the chance to pull a goal back after Ter Stegen loses the ball on the halfway line, but they missed the open goal.

It got worse for Alves and Co when they fall further behind, prompting more goading from Alba. Neymar's team are reduced to 10 men after a bad tackle from behind but the result is already decided. 

'We beat them 4-0. It was very easy,' Neymar boasted after the match. 'We controlled the game,' the Brazil star added.

'We expected an easy game but in the end they were lucky and they managed to win,' Alves explained.

One thing the players will all agree on is that they will be hoping for a similar scoreline in their favour at the Bernabeu on Saturday evening.

Barcelona were the latest team to take part in the competition after Borussia Dortmund stars took the controls at the end of last month.
