Genius, extraterrestrial, legend, eternal, the greatest of all time... simply, Lionel Andrés Messi Cuccittini.
Argentina’s number 10 scored three goals this Tuesday (16) against Algeria and became the joint top scorer in World Cup history, alongside Germany’s Miroslav Klose.
In just one night, Messi moved past Mbappé/Gerd Müller, Ronaldo Nazário, and now has 16 goals in 27 World Cup matches — the player with the most appearances in the tournament’s history.
In a single match, Messi shattered seven historic records!
