Another Messi masterclass means Argentina have STILL never lost a World Cup semi-final...
Lionel Messi started the night by equalling Lothar Matthäus as the man with the most appearances in World Cup history (25).
With his goal, he became Argentina's all-time top scorer at the World Cup (11).
With his assist, he equalled Diego Maradona as the man with the most assists in recorded World Cup history (8).
Being directly involved in two goals meant he equalled Miroslav Klose and Ronaldo for most goals + assists in recorded World Cup history.
19 - Miroslav Klose
19 - Ronaldo
19 - Lionel Messi
He's now scored more World Cup goals AND provided more World Cup assists than any active player.
No player at the 2022 World Cup has scored more goals. No player has provided more assists.
No player has ever won the Golden Ball twice. Messi is the favourite.
And he would trade every single one of these stats if it meant he finally got his hands on the trophy.
