It’s been years since Messi set an unattainable record in LaLiga

The Argentina captain lit up the scene as Barcelona’s talisman and also set a few records along the way, including some that may never be broken.

It was exactly a decade ago since Messi equaled and then eclipsed Telmo Zarra’s 251-goal haul in a 5-1 demolition of Sevilla.

The Athletic Club legend’s performance spanned nearly six decades before the prolific Ballon d’Or winner scored his second of the night.

Messi extended his tally to 253 LaLiga goals later, claiming a hat-trick as he retired seven years later with a whopping 474 strikes to his name.

Only his former Real Madrid nemesis Cristiano Ronaldo managed to come close to that number, but still a 311-goal outing.

Truly an out of this world player.
