'La Pulga' wasn't able to score from the spot against Getafe, setting a new La Liga milestone with his mishap.

After all, when it comes to penalties, Messi seems to be human after all.

The international superstar wasn't able to transform yet another penalty this season against Getafe, setting a new La Liga record for most missed penalties by a team. Los Blaugranas have been awarded 15 penalties in their domestic tournament, and have only been able to transform eight. With today's miss, Barcelona surpassed Tenerife as the team with the most missed penalties in a single season.

Particularly, Messi's performance when he comes to take the shot from the spot hasn't been as accurate as you would expect. The Argentinean has missed four out of eight penalties he has taken this season, contributing to the team's misfortune.

If you take a look at Barcelona's stats in all competitions, things don't improve that much.

Without further ado, here's Lionel Messi's missed penalty against Getafe.

Fans weren't pleased with this news. Here's what they had to say about it.
