Pope Francis claims his Argentine compatriot Lionel Messi is not ‘God’, though understands why the Barcelona fan base refer to the 31-year-old as if he is.
Messi was on target for the Catalan giants in a 2-0 win over Atletico Madrid last weekend bringing his LaLiga tally to 33 for the season, while he has also created 12 goals in 29 league games for the table toppers.
LIONEL MESSI IN NUMBERS
Goals (in all comps): 43
Appearances (in all comps): 41
Assists (in all comps): 18
Hat-tricks: 4
Penalties: 5 (1 missed)
LaLiga goals: 33 in 29 appearances
LaLiga assists: 12 in 29 appearances
Champions League goals: 8 in 6 appearances
Copa del Rey goals: 2 in 4 appearances
He has also contributed eight goals in six Champions League appearances to help Barca reach the quarter-finals, while also helping his side progress to the Copa del Rey final.
Incredibly, Messi is also the first player in the history of football to score at least 40 goals in 10 consecutive seasons.
So far he has found the net 43 times in 41 games across all competitions – including a 51st career hat-trick – but he still has some way off to repeat his finest goalscoring feat.
Messi needs 30 goals if he is to equal his best goal haul for a single season, after notching an incredible 73 times in 60 games during the 2011/12 campaign.
As things stand, he is well ahead his rivals in the race for the Golden Shoe, with four more goals to his name than nearest challenger Kylian Mbappe currently on 27 goals for the season.
Messi has already levelled his tally from the 2013/14 and 2015/16 season – and could even reach 60 goals in one season for the third time in his career.
The 31-year-old is looking to help the Catalan giants secure yet another treble this season.
The league is seemingly already wrapped up, and Messi and co. will face Valencia in the Copa del Rey final.
They also go head-to-head with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Manchester United in the last eight of the Champions League – with the first leg taking place on Wednesday night – as they seek a first success in Europe’s most elite competition in four years.
