Definitely, one of a kind, the six times Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi with his goal from the penalty spot in the semi-final fixture against Croatia of the world cup 2022 in Qatar, set a new record for Argentina at the prestigious event as he became the highest goalscorer for Argentina at the world cup.
Messi, who had previously tied Gabriel Batistuta’s record with his goal against the Netherlands in the quarter-finals of the competition, took his tally to 11 goals with his goal against Croatia in the competition as well.
