A picture of soccer superstar Lionel Messi behind bars and crying bloody tears is the latest attempt by ISIS to threaten to disrupt the 2018 World Cup which is due to take place in Russia.

The chilling image of Messi in a prison suit with the caption next to him "you are fighting a state which does not have failure in its dictionary" was released by the ISIS-related media agency Wafa Media foundation. Under the picture the words "Just Terrorism" add a macabre flavor to the scene.
