Tammy Abraham rues hitting the crossbar for a SIXTH time since joining Roma from Chelsea this year... as England international helps Jose Mourinho's side to 2-0 win over Empoli

Tammy Abraham rued his luck at Roma after the English striker hit the woodwork for the sixth time this season during the Giallorossi's 2-0 win over Empoli on Saturday.

The 24-year-old struck the bar in the build-up to Roma's second goal, with Abraham's effort coming off the bar and down into the path of Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who slammed in a second goal for Jose Mourinho's men.

Abraham, who has four goals in nine games since making a £34m move from Chelsea earlier this summer, took to Twitter to complain about his poor fortune - and even asked for the crossbar to be altered to suit his needs.
