Lionel Messi's errant shot hits woman in stands (Video)

Woman hit by Lionel Messi errant shot

Lionel Messi accidentally hit a woman in the stands with an errant shot during Sunday's Barcelona FC soccer match against Villarreal.

Messi's shot from outside the box went just over the crossbar, hitting a female Villarreal fan in the front row as she tried to protect herself with her arm.


The woman tried to shake off the pain in her arm, but it became clear that she was more seriously injured, as she became extremely dizzy. Medical staffers came over to attend to her, and she nearly collapsed as she tried to walk over to the aisle to meet them.

No word yet as to the severity of her injuries, but according to ESPN, her wrist was not broken.

The match ended in a 2-2 draw.
