See, even the best footballers are human after all.

The Barcelona star endured a moment he’ll want to forget in a hurry during Brazil’s 1-0 friendly victory over Ecuador in New Jersey last night, striking the crossbar from a mere two yards out when he hadn’t even the ‘keeper to beat.

In Neymar’s defence, he was stretching to reach a cross that was delivered at some speed, but a man of his quality shouldn’t be missing those; you’d be a bit miffed if you missed a chance like that down at five-a-side on a Tuesday night.

Granted, nobody playing down the five-a-side on a Tuesday night could do something like this either…
