Here's a look at the weird and wonderful from across social media for this St. George's Day.
SOCCER: Stat of the day right here. We're not worthy.
Lionel Messi has just scored his 468th La Liga goal. To put that into some sort of context, it’s the same number as Alan Shearer and Wayne Rooney, the Premier League’s top two all-time leading scorers, COMBINED.

In 418 fewer games.
SOCCER: Although Messi was piling up the records, own goals like this made life a little easier for Barca on the night. Love the surprise in the commentator's voice here.

SOCCER: There are two types of great goals: 'Screamers' and 'Teamers'. This is a brilliant example of the latter. (Trademark on 'Teamer' pending).
