| What a Mess: Lionel Messi is going through a tough time at the mo |
Lionel Messi isn't having a great time of it at the moment.
The Barcelona star has seen his side throw away a commanding lead at the top of La Liga to let Real Madrid and Atletico back into the title race.
And now, after Barca's Champions League quarter-final defeat to Atletico the Argentina forward managed to register some very un-Lionel Messi stats.
For a start he has now gone five games without scoring or assisting for Barcelona for the first time ever in his career.
Although, let's be honest, how good are you if you get to 28-years-old, 556 games into your career before you hit a barren spell like that?
It's also his worst run in front of goal since 2010, making it 452 minutes since he last scored, just shy of 527 minutes which is his worst ever run.
Also, against Atletico he failed to have a single touch in the opposition's box .
And he failed to register a shot on target in a Champions League game for the first time in two years .
