'One of a kind' Messi hits 900 career goals - numbers behind milestone
"Lionel Messi became only the second player in history to reach 900 top-level career goals after scoring in Inter Miami's match against Nashville SC on Wednesday. The Argentina international scored the landmark goal after just seven minutes at Geodis Park in Tennessee in the Concacaf Champions Cup last-16 second leg tie."
"Since becoming the youngest scorer in Barcelona's history at 17 years, 10 months and seven days old - Messi hasn't stopped scoring. It took the forward only three minutes to find the back of the net after replacing Samuel Eto'o in the second half of a La Liga fixture against Albacete in May 2005."
"The 38-year-old forward has found the back of the net 81 times in 92 appearances since signing in June 2023 to help Inter Miami win the League Cup and MLS Cup. Messi - regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time - has also scored a plethora of goals for Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Argentina during a glittering career in which he has won the Ballon d'Or eight times."
