The year 2019 premièred with new challenges in the list of records of Leo Messi, and this Sunday fell the first. The goal 400 in LaLiga arrived in a clash against the Eibar in the Camp Nou, but on the way to the titles that more wish -League, Champions and Glass of Rey-, could follow arriving. There is another put that it would do even more big, if it fits, his already historical figure.
And it is not difficult to hit which is this aim, because further of the victories, the game and the assistances, the Argentinian always wants to help to the FC Barcelona. With the 401, the 402, the 403... Like this until the 500. Half thousand would be a barbaric figure, and many already think in when and how could arrive. Attending to his last registers, the estimate begins to limit the dates.
Surprisingly, the '10' has been quite regulate when it has certified some round numbers. In 2005, in front of the Albacete, premièred his account scorer, and in 2010 arrived to the centena against the Almería. Once fine-tuned the sight, started a cycle that repeats each three seasons, and that left the so much 200 in 2013 (to Osasuna), the 300 in 2016 (to the Sporting of Gijón) and the mentioned 400 in 2019 (to the Eibar).
Like this, the target 500 would situate in 2022, if it is that the one of Rosario keeps his series and does not decide to accelerate or brake in his powerful capacity goleadora. Would have already 34 years and would follow giving, as it did, does and will do, joys to the culés, and if it elevates the slat hardly a pasito more, could plant in head in another classification of historical attackers. The challenges do not go to exhaust.
The goal 501 would convert to Messi in the player with more goals in an alone national competition of the history, above names that only the more experts know. To shot are already Stjepan Bobek (403 in Yugoslavia between 1945 and 1958) and Jimmy McGrory (410 in Scotland between 1922 and 1938), and by in front another legend. Josef Bican, that already planted in 500 in Czechoslovakia between 1931 and 1955. Almost at all.
Messi is much more that a goleador
But if there is something that converts to Leo Messi is one of the best footballers of the history is that it is not only a goleador, but a total player. After reaching the 400 so many, Ernesto Valverde already warned it on his pupilo, of the that stands out that it is able to do what want: "it Is an atrocity, is easy to say it, but one does not do an idea until it puts them one at the side of the another. It is an extraordinary player, that is not only goleador. It is what generates to his around, the goals that gives...".
