#1 History is chaffed once again by Lionel Messi

Messi makes another record, his own!
Messi makes another record, his own!

Uff, that man again!

With another emphatic free-kick in the dying embers, the Argentine now moves beyond Gerd Muller with 366 league goals for Barcelona, the highest a player has ever scored for one single club. Now that's another piece of history rewritten by the genius that is Lionel Messi.

Once again unstoppable in the second-half filibuster, the Barcelona ace punched holes in the Sociedad defence with a total of five shots and as many take-ons. He also created a chance and maintained 87% passing rate, but the free-kick towards the end takes the cake.

Messi curled another outrageous set-piece with utmost nonchalance to not only consolidate the victory, but to also leave another mark in the history books.
