Justin Bieber was spotted playing soccer with a group of his friends in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon.
The 27-year-old hitmaker was initially spotted shirtless while changing into his jersey before taking to the field and diving right into the friendly match.
The Yummy songwriter was later seen sitting in the shade while taking a break from the day’s activities and taking a stroll while barefoot.

The following month, the tour as a whole was postponed due to the onset of the global pandemic.
