The challenge requires players to hit the crossbar. In the video, Lamine unleashes a shot with astonishing precision, landing the ball exactly on target—right where a Powerade bottle is perched on the crossbar. After Yamal's strike, the bottle topples, showcasing the player's exquisite accuracy.

It's worth noting that the Crossbar Challenge is also a smartphone game where the goal isn't to score, but to strike the crossbar. There's no goalkeeper, and the shot is taken from the penalty spot. But does that really make it any easier for the player?

Remember, Powerade, the sports drink manufacturer, is a sponsor of Lamine Yamal, and they often collaborate on joint promotional videos.

Over the past year, Yamal has become a true football superstar. At just 17, he is already one of Barcelona's key players, helping the club secure a domestic treble this season.
