MrBeast, meet Haaland: Man City star puts YouTuber through soccer gauntlet

Manchester City star Erling Haaland is known for his extraordinary feats on a soccer pitch, but this time he decided to put that to the test by allowing famous YouTube star James Stephen "Jimmy" Donaldson -- better known as "MrBeast"  -- to participate in a series of intense soccer challenges known as the "Erling Haaland Gauntlet" at the club's training ground.

Posted on the Norway international's YouTube channel, which currently has over four million subscribers, Haaland put MrBeast -- alongside his two friends Tareq Salameh and Nolan Hansen -- through several soccer challenges to test their skill, strength and endurance. 

The challenges consisted of sprints, wall sits, headers and a crossbar challenge, in which the winner would get a "Haaland Hammer," and the loser would have to go into goal and get hit by free shots from the penalty spot.

In the end, it was Salameh who ended up winning the "Haaland Hammer" after finishing first amongst the three, and it was MrBeast who had the misfortune of getting hit with shots from his two friends and, of course, Haaland.

It's safe to say that the most-subscribed YouTuber with over 526 million -- who's known for his extraordinary challenges -- probably doesn't have what it takes to cut it as a professional soccer player. 

While it is currently the international break, that doesn't mean Haaland will relax while there are no matches for Manchester City. The 26-year-old was called up to play for his national team this month against Wales and Denmark in the final matches of their UEFA Nations League A campaign.

They are currently last in Group 4, as they look to qualify for the quarterfinal of the competition.
