Four years since the record Lionel Messi has pulverized was broken
Lionel Messi overtook Telmo Zarra with a hat-trick against Sevilla and has gone on to 392 goals
Lionel Messi’s hugely impressive statistics were highlighted on Thursday, four years since he overtook Telmo Zarra as La Liga’s all-time top scorer.
Four years in which Messi has continued to increase his goalscoring numbers and go straight for his sixth 'Pichichi', which would allow him to match the legendary Zarra in one of the few records that D10S has left to reach.
It was on November 22, 2014 at the Camp Nou when a hat trick against Sevilla allowed Leo to overcome the 251 goals scored by the Athletic Bilbao player.
The club’s Twitter account pointed out:
