The Blaugrana icon has reached yet another milestone after he broke the mark held by the Brazilian legend

Lionel Messi has broken Pele's all-time record for goals scored with a single club by netting his 644th career goal for Barcelona.

The Brazilian icon netted 643 times for Santos in his career, a mark that seemed to be nearly unbreakable - but Messi has now set the record by scoring in the 65th minute of Barca's La Liga match against Valladolid on Tuesday.

With Barca already up by two goals, Pedri sent Messi in behind the defence with a backheel pass and the 33-year-old slotted home past Jordi Masip to make it 3-0 on the night.

Messi had tied Pele's record at the weekend when he scored in Barcelona's 2-2 draw against Valencia.

"Well, [Messi's] stats are amazing. I don't think we'll ever have another player at this club who has given that much in terms of effectiveness," Barcelona head coach Ronald Koeman said ahead of Messi setting the record.

"They are big stats. I don't know how many hat-tricks he has scored already. Once again, it is unbelievable what he has done for this club."

It is yet another record for Messi, who has established himself as one of the greatest footballers of all-time since he joined Barcelona at age 13 and made his competitive debut at 17 in 2004.

Messi has gone on to win La Liga on 10 occasions with the Blaugrana, as well as six Copa del Rey titles and four Champions League trophies.

On an individual level, Messi has won the Ballon d'Or six times, most recently in 2019, the most any player has ever won the award.

Recently, though, Messi's time at Barcelona has soured as he attempted to engineer a move away from the club earlier this year.

GOAT for a reason

Watch how those who won't criticise Pele and their club legends like Maldini, Giggs, Zannetti, Gerrad for playing for one club all through their careers come for the GOAT's head


Una go wail taya

Show me a better couple than these two. I'll wait

The GOAT.



While Messi was breaking Pele's record, Juventus were getting spanked at home by fiorentina. Penaldo the biggest fraud of all time was outshined by a 42 years old Frank Ribery.


It will take about two or three centuries for this record to be broken, same as the 91 goals in a year record. Messi keeps setting generational records while the Portuguese Fraud keeps jumping from one place to another like a promiscuous woman.

FACTS : To beat Messi’s 644 goal record,
A player will have to score an average of 43 goals a season for 15 years....for ONE club!!!

Almost IMPOSSIBLE!!!


And scoring against 36 different teams in Champions League no be beans!!

EVILFOREST:
JESUS....
wen next can we hav such an EXTRATERRESTRIAL being..?
Only GOD can send us such.

Perhaps, in another 2 centuries to come!

Agidi different from abinibi, e no fit carry you reach here



On the other news:

A few fans met Messi driving his car near Camp Nou and asked him to stay at Barca.

"The God of football!", "You're great Messi!", "The best in history!", "Please don't go Leo! Don't leave, stay!",

"Please stay! Otherwise my dad will be angry!", "If you leave, my father won't love me anymore!" they were saying.

Leo smiled after one of the fans begged him to stay and drove away moments later.


There are levels to this GOAT thing. I know my own.

GOAT

#RESPECT

MESSI IS TRULY THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME.

Ronaldo fans, listen and listen good......

Messi was created and born to play football,
the others came to this world to learn the game, and they mastered it....rightly so anyways.

This is the ONLY difference between Messi and the rest that many people do not understand!

MESSI is the G.O.A.T.
END OF DISCUSSION!

As the Yorubas will say "Abinibi yato si Ability!"

Argue with your TV screen!

Perhaps, this is the record he was hoping to break this season that he decided to stay one more season @Barca...Perhaps!

Good job

Pessi

One club Merchant

Pele played for 2 clubs though

We the humble greatest of all time Ronaldo fans celebrate with the barca player for breaking pele's record and expecting him to break ororos own too

Take away his goals, you’re left with his assists. Take away his assists, you’re left with his dribbles. Take away his dribbles, and you’re left with his audacious key passes.. And most of the time, you get all of it together in the span of 90 minutes. One man, Lionel Messi. Undoubtedly The Greatest Of All Time

What a useless record, playing for one club, how does this translate to record,
Playing for one club hahahahahaha

Congrats to him

One of a kind

Barcelona 0 Juventus 3
Cadiz 3 Barcelona 0
Bayern 8 Barcelona 2

Remember?

The G.O.A.T of of all G.O.A.Ts.

That guy should do and leave









That dead club called Barcelona

Him try

small goat...

He should keep on breaking pele's record but my question is that,"can messi ever break pele's world cup record ?

I made a statement some months back that we should all count ourselves lucky to have lived in an era where we saw Messi and Christiano Ronaldo play the beautiful game of soccer. These 2 dudes are GOATS in my book.

Sadly old age is catching up with them now. We might never see such players ever again. Damn

KING CR7

..
The Greatest of all times.

No trophy for them this season.
