Lionel Messi Sets Champions League Scoring Record


The Argentine superstar now holds two prestigious scoring records.


Three days after becoming the top goalscorer in the history of the Spanish La Liga, Lionel Messi has now broken another goalscoring record. The Argentine scored the 72nd goal of his Champions League career, surpassing Real Madrid legend, Raul, at the top of the scoring chart in the most prestigious club competition.


The goal didn't come off a trademark Messi chip over the goalkeeper or a mazy run through half of the APOEL defense, but it came after a sublime redirection on Rafinha's low shot.




Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were locked in a competition for which one will be able to dethrone Raul, but Messi was able to edge the Portuguese forward. The two will surely continue with this dead heat in the future, but Messi has earned the bragging rights for setting the record.
