Argentine football legend Lionel Messi has reached another remarkable career milestone after taking his career tally to 937 goals and 428 assists.
The 39-year-old achieved the feat after delivering a goal and an assist to inspire Inter Miami to a 2-1 comeback victory over New England Revolution in the Major League Soccer (MLS) on Sunday night.
Inter Miami fell behind in the 53rd minute when Dániel Gazdag opened the scoring for the hosts.
However, Messi provided the assist for Germán Berterame’s equaliser in the 69th minute before producing a moment of individual brilliance to score the winning goal in the 83rd minute.
The Argentine captain dribbled past three defenders before firing a left-footed effort into the net to complete the comeback victory.
The result moved Inter Miami to second place in the Eastern Conference with 59 points, one point ahead of New England Revolution.
Messi’s latest contribution further extends his extraordinary career numbers, taking him to 937 goals and 428 assists across official club and international appearances.
The former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain forward continues to strengthen his legacy as one of football’s most decorated and influential players.
