There is much more to Lionel Messi than goals. The Agentine attacker is a creator, a playmaker and a visionary. Put him in any position and he would be the best. But ultimately, he will remembered for the goals.
It came against Albacete at Camp Nou. Ronaldinho found the 17-year-old substitute with a lofted pass and the Argentine let it bounce before netting with a lovely left-footed lob. A legend was born.
It is hard to believe that in the early years of his career, Lionel Messi was not very good at taking free-kicks. But when he eventually mastered the art, he became the best at that too. This effort against Celta Vigo at Camp Nou is one of his finest.
Lionel Messi's slight stature means he is not known for his headers, but the Argentine scored one on the grandest of stages the 2009 Champions League final. The Argentine found space between John O'Shea and Rio Ferdinand and rose majestically to head Xavi's cross over Edwin van der Sar to net for the first time against English opposition as Barca wrapped up a historic treble.
