Messi Breaks Another Record in Ligue 1

Published: Sept 20, 2025

Breathtaking strike adds a new milestone to Messi's incredible career

Lionel Messi produced a moment of pure class to give Paris Saint-Germain the lead and, in the process, set a new Ligue 1 milestone. The goal — a perfectly weighted curling finish from the edge of the box — came after a period of sustained PSG pressure and highlighted Messi’s unrivalled timing and technique. His movement off the ball repeatedly dragged defenders out of position, creating the room needed for the decisive strike.

From a tactical perspective, PSG adjusted to give Messi more freedom between the lines, allowing their midfielders to progress the ball quickly into attacking areas. The result not only secures three points but also boosts PSG’s confidence ahead of key upcoming fixtures in both domestic competition and Europe.
