Lionel Messi does not stop in his ambition for 1,000 goals. In his latest appearance in Ecuador, the Argentine captain scored the 897th goal of his professional career, narrowing the gap at a time when the competition with Cristiano Ronaldo has become unusual due to extra-football factors.
Highlights of the stars' current situation
- Messi’s longevity: His goal against Barcelona SC confirms that, despite the years, his finishing ability remains intact. With a contract signed until the end of 2028, the Rosario native has time on his side.
- The gap: Currently, 64 goals separate Cristiano (961) from Messi (897).
