Lionel Messi smashes all-time Champions League scoring record
Witness history in the making: Argentina wizard Lionel Messi smashes the Champions League all-time scoring record by scoring a hat-trick in a 4-0 romp at APOEL Nicosia. Messi came into the match level with Spaniard Raul on 71 Champions League goals but he stabbed home from close range on 37 minutes to take sole possession of the record. Another two goals in the game means he is now on 74 goals in the UEFA Champions League. Three days earlier, Messi had become the La Liga's top career scorer. Has there ever been a better player in all of history?
