Kobe Bryant didn't show up at a press conference announcing Marta as a Los Angeles Sol player merely to help introduce her.

He stayed on for some photo opportunities with the players and juggled a few balls with Marta and some of her Sol teammates.

Then someone had the idea that Marta and Kobe should take turns shooting penalty kicks at each other.

Goal.com has video of what resulted.

Before viewing, however, take a moment to predict what will happen in a showdown between the greatest women's player in the game today and the best basketball player in the NBA.

Then see if the prediction was valid by checking out the clip!
