He had scored his 99th international goal and his 800th of his career in a 2-0 win against Panama last Thursday.
Messi, however, remains third on the men’s leading international scorers chart behind Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, who is now on 120 goals and Iran’s Ali Daei, who scored 109 before retiring in 2007.
