Happy 35th Birthday To Lionel Messi by Baloranking(m): 11:59pm On Jun 23, 2022 |
Happy birthday to Messi, the greatest to ever try kicking a ball. Happy Birthday to the man of miracles Lionel Messi. I am so glad to be born in Messi's time. Happy Birthday to the greatest footballer ever in the world. Lionel Andrès Messi, undoubtedly one of the greatest footballers to have played the game of football, turns 35 today. Born on 24 June, 1987 in Rosario, Argentina, Messi signed up with Spain’s FC Barcelona at the age of 13 and has since become one of the greatest footballers to have played the game. Here are some records held by messi: 1) Most Ballon d’Or wins – 7 With Messi and Ronaldo both finally showing their human side and declining, their era of dominating the Ballon d’Or awards has seemingly drawn to a close. In that time, Ronaldo managed to steal five away from Messi, which is a serious testament to his own abilities. Winning five Ballon d’Or’s in Messi’s era is one hell of an accomplishment. Messi’s seven will never be topped. The man found levels that nobody will reach again. 2) Most goals in a calendar year – 91 Nine goals away from scoring 100 goals within a 365 day period. That is truly unfathomable numbers. Producing the mesmerising feat in 2012, nobody has come close to Messi’s 91 goal year since. Still sitting in second place is Gerd Muller, who scored 85 goals in 1972. If that doesn’t tell you just how freakish a scoring run that was from Messi, nothing will. 3) Most goals for one singular club – 672 Leaving Barcelona was always going to be emotional, but leaving under the circumstances he did made matters a lot worse. Messi’s spell in Catalonia was perhaps the best spell from a player at a club ever. 4) Most European Golden Shoes – 6 Awarded to the leading goal scorer across Europe’s top divisions, Messi of course has a trophy cabinet full of European Golden Shoes, as if he’s got a collection going on. 5) Most Champions League hat-tricks – 8 Admittedly this is one of very few records that feel slightly beatable, Messi currently has the most Champions League hat-tricks, but is closely followed by Cristiano Ronaldo’s seven. However, with Ronaldo looking set to not play Champions League football by sticking with Manchester United, there is a genuine possibility he might not get another chance to take that record, leaving it up to either Robert Lewandowski or Karim Benzema in third and fourth respectively. All six of them were won at Barcelona, the last three of which were all won back to back from 2016 to 2019. Freakish firing rates. 6) Most La Liga hat-tricks – 36 For many players – even strikers – scoring one or two career hat-tricks is a luxury that one won’t ever forget. Messi can’t even remember half of the hat-tricks he’s scored, for some perspective. Seriously, 36 times he’s put at least three goals past one team in La Liga. That’s ridiculous. If he didn’t have to move on, there’s no doubt in our minds he could’ve reached 40 for Barça.
