Lionel Messi is a footballer who has taught sports fans that he scores in almost every match. Leo makes the fans wonder if he fails to score a goal or even pass during the match, everyone is so used to it. So how many goals has Messi, already a great footballer, scored in his entire career?
Statistics
Leo Messi, despite being Argentine, unlike most of his compatriots, began his professional career in Europe as Barcelona took care of his transition when Messi was only thirteen years old. And Lionel scored his first goal for the main team of Barcelona on May 1, 2005 in a match with the Albacete team, becoming the youngest goalscorer of Barcelona in its entire history.
It is rather difficult to calculate the total number of Messi's goals in his entire career, and how many teams he has scored. Various sources will offer you a wide variety of information - someone takes into account absolutely all of Messi's goals, even those scored for the double of Barcelona - the team for which he plays. Some, on the contrary, take into account only goals for the main team, and only in official matches, and the rest, including friendly ones, do not even take into account. The situation is further complicated by the fact that Leo does not even think to hang his boots on a nail, which means that he continues to score and adjust his statistics.
After signing a contract with Barcelona, young Messi was injected with growth hormones, without which he could hardly have become taller than one and a half meters, but thanks to this treatment, Messi was able to grow up to 169 centimeters.

All agree on only one thing - the number of goals scored by Lionel Messi has long exceeded three and a half hundred, how many and how not to count, and such a result will be fair if only the goals in official matches for the main team of Barcelona and the Argentina national team are taken into account.
Records and awards
Lionel Messi holds more than twenty different football records with his amazing scoring talent. He is the top scorer in Barcelona's history, the only four-time FIFA Ballon d'Or and three-time Golden Boot, holder of numerous Spanish championship records, but in 2012 there was a record that was particularly buzzing about.
This refers to the number of goals scored in one calendar year. This record, held by Gerd Müller, held for forty years, but Messi, who scored 86 goals in 2012, could not resist. Another famous Messi record is the longest goal streak in national championships: Lionel did not leave the field without a goal in the 2012/13 Spanish championship in twenty-one matches.
The number of goals of Lionel Messi at the world championships is the same as that of Dmitry Sychev - he has only one, in games for the national team of Messi is not yet as good as in Barcelona.
