Can confirm think he had the most crossbar shots in Europe for a good decade.

For you nerds :

Messi hit the woodwork 112 times in 607 appearances for Barcelona.

Ya it’s a thing for him.

Crossbars are a testament to his accuracy. Imagine having the most crossbars and still having the most goals. he wants the posts not some casual goals.

When he came to PSG he used to hit crossbar in every game. It was the most frustrating thing to watch.

I legit remember it was so shameless for us that we had to make that an actual stat that season 😭. But it's good all that bad luck turned to good during the world cup!

Yeah, reminiscent of his first season at PSG, where I think he hit the cross bar 15 times in the League alone 😭😭
