REVEALED: Messi was Barcelona's WORST performer for Athletic Bilbao draw

Barcelona star Leo Messi endured one of the worst performances of his career for yesterday's 0-0 draw at Athletic Bilbao.

Messi's stats were the WORST of any play in Barca's line-up on the day.

He missed more passes than anyone else (15), lost more balls than anyone (28) and was also the one who dribbled the least (4) on his team.

Going into the game, Barca coach Ernesto Valverde insisted Messi had been 100 per cent fit.

The result saw Real Madrid cut Barca's leadership to six points.
