EKO HOT BLOG reports that in a stunning feat, Paris Saint-Germain forward, Lionel Messi, has set a new record for scoring the most goals in Europe’s top-five leagues (EPL, La Liga, Ligue 1, Bundesliga, and Serie A).
The Argentine captain surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo’s record with his 697th club goal in PSG’s 3-1 victory over Montpellier on Wednesday.
This marks a significant milestone in Messi’s illustrious career, as he achieved this feat while playing his entire senior professional career in Europe’s top-five leagues. The former Barcelona captain overtook Ronaldo’s tally of 696 goals while taking 84 fewer games.
Messi’s goal against Montpellier was his 14th of the season for PSG in all competitions this term, and the Argentine star is now just four short of Ronaldo’s all-time club goal tally of 701.
Ronaldo, who recently transferred to Al-Nassr, has yet to score for his new club in a competitive encounter, so it might not take long for Lionel Messi to surpass him.
The record-breaking goal by Lionel Messi has once again underlined his status as one of the greatest footballers of all time and has sparked widespread celebration among football fans across the globe.
The Argentine captain’s achievements continue to inspire and captivate audiences, and his record-breaking feat will undoubtedly go down in history.
Just when the world thinks the Ronaldo vs. Messi debate is dying, the records keep stirring things up in the GOAT debate.
