Lionel Messi's Copa del Rey statistics
The Argentine forward has played 63 times and scored 46 goals
Lionel Messi has achieved some spectacular numbers in the Copa del Rey, a tournament he's won five times with Barcelona.
He has played 63 times, 52 as a starter and 11 as a sub, scoring 46 goals. He has played nearly 5,000 minutes (4,997) and earned 43 wins.
Messi's debut was unfortunate, on October 27, 2004, at Gramenet, a game where Rijkaard's Barcelona lost 1-0.
However things quickly improved. He's won 68% of his cup games and scored 0.73 goals per game on average.
His last 16 first legs have historically been superb, in which he's scored 13 goals in 9 games. In quarter final first legs he's got 5 in 9.
