Messi's consecutive scoring record is how many matches?
Messi has set some incredible records during his illustrious professional career. The fact that the Argentine player scored 91 goals in 2012 is undoubtedly the best achievement he has ever achieved.
It is a record that will stand at least for many years to come, but it is not the only unbreakable achievement that Messi has made with the ball at his feet.
During the 2012/13 season, La Pulga scored in 21 consecutive La Liga appearances, against all 19 different teams for a total of 33 goals.
It's unbelievable that a player can do such a thing in one of Europe's top 5 leagues. In that context, the Premier League record of just 11 consecutive matches was set by Jamie Vardy in the 2015/16 season.
In fact, the only player to come close to Messi's record was striker Gerd Muller, who scored in 16 consecutive games for Bayern Munich during the 1969/70 season.
When he moved to Inter Miami and was already 36 years old, Messi still maintained this "habit" with a dream start. He scored in all 6 appearances for the Florida State team, plus the previous match against Argentina was 7 consecutive matches, reaching a total of 10 goals.
This is the 7th time in his career Messi has scored 7 consecutive matches, his 6th best achievement ever.
