#1 Barca and the woodwork…
Barcelona hit the woodwork an incredible five times in the game against Deportivo. Although two of them resulted in rebound goals for Paulinho, the fans and the manager will be a bit concerned regarding the inability to finish cleanly.
Lionel Messi was the culprit of hitting the woodwork as many as three times, yes, he could’ve had a hat-trick. Oh, and he did miss a penalty as well.
Barcelona are creating so many chances that some of their misses are going under the radar. But in the big games, where chances will come at a premium, the team’s lack of prolificacy in front of goal could haunt them next weekend.
In total, Barca have hit the post 19 times in the league; an astounding number.
