JoIt was always going to be a special night for me Lionel Messi while the Argentine tied with Xavi Hernandez’s 767 record Barcelona and celebrated it with a sparkling performance against Huesca.
Messi scored an impressive opener, after a brilliant touch, took the ball to the defender and threw the ball to the bottom of the net to the crossbar. Then, in the 90th minute, he put an end to a solid victory.
Tribute to Messi
These two attacks mean Messi has 21 goals this season and has scored 20 or more goals in 13 consecutive seasons. In addition, it is made clear in the race for the Pichichi Award.
Former teammate Luis Suarez is the following one with 18 goals of LaLiga Santander, Gerard Moreno and Karim Benzema complete the podium with 15 goals each. Messi has been especially lethal in the last 10 games, in which he has scored 14 times.
