Paul Smith:

Hi,

What is the rule regarding assists given from shots that hit the crossbar?

Danny Murphy hasn't been given an assist yesterday, but no opposition player touched the ball after his shot hit the bar.

The official Premier League site has given him an assist.

PTG - Under the rules of PlayTheGame, assists are not awarded if the ball takes a deflection from the post or bar.

Hi there,

Shouldn't Danny Murphy have been awarded an assist for setting up Fulhams second goal against Bolton on Saturday. It was his shot that deflected of the bar and felll to Simon Davies without touching another player.

Cheers!
