One of the world’s greatest players of all time, 36-year-old Argentina captain Lionel Messi has made just four appearances for his new club since his debut on July 21, but he hasn’t lost any of his sniping skills, scoring seven goals, including two in his last three games. That is enough for him to share 4-7. place in the list of Inter’s top scorers of all time. What’s more, the other 7 goalscorers needed incomparably more games, the least of them being the Venezuelan Josep Martinez – a whopping 28!
True, there is a nuance – this club, with the full name “Club Internacional de Fútbol Miami”, one of the owners of which is the English football legend David Beckham, was founded very recently, on January 29, 2018.
In the Round of 16 of the League Cup on Monday, Messi – in his fourth game – scored two goals again in regular time, helping to defeat “FC Dallas” in the round of 16, however, after a draw (4:4) in regular time, the winner was needed to determine the winner, in which the Floridians were superior – 5: 3.
Considering Messi’s virtuoso talents on the field, there is no doubt that he is capable of becoming the club’s record scorer, only to be overtaken by the Finnish Robert Taylor (8 goals in 64 games), the Ecuadorian Leonardo Campana (16 goals in 50 games) and the Argentine Gonzalo Higuain, who has already finished his career at this club. (29 goals in 70 games).
