Lionel Messi makes history with the first player to score 400 goals

The Argentine has an average of 0.92 goals per game in his illustrious career.
Lionel Messi has become the first player to score 400 goals in the league after scoring against Eibar on Sunday.
The Argentinian made it 2-0 when he scored for the leaders of the League at the Camp Nou, extending his record as the highest scorer in the history of the Spanish top flight.
Incredibly, Messi only took 435 games to reach his 400 goals, scoring an average of 0.92 goals per game.
His record looks set to continue for many years, as Aritz Aduriz is the next leading scorer currently playing in the league with 157 goals in 422 games.
The strike makes Messi the second player to have scored 400 goals in any of the five best leagues in Europe, reaching the milestone in 63 games less than Cristiano Ronaldo, and now he has almost doubled Alan Shearer's record in the Premier League. 260 hits.
The 31-year-old's first goal came back in 2005 against Albacete when he was only 17 years old and was assisted by Barca and Brazilian legend Ronaldinho, who scored 70 goals in the league for the Catalan club in 145 games.
Among his 400 results are 83 shots and 31 tricks, helping him to put 89 goals ahead of the second top scorer in the league, Ronaldo.
Next on the list is Telmo Zarra, who played for Athletic Bilbao from 1940 to 1955, with 251 efforts. They follow the Mexican Hugo Sanchez with 234 and the legend of Real Madrid Raul with 228.
However, the domain of Messi has not been limited to the league, and in all competitions has scored 575 goals.
That gives him a colossal advantage over Luis Suarez, who is the second highest active scorer for Barça with 166 goals.
