Stat of the Day: Messi 101!

Stat of the Day: Messi 101!





Lionel Messi has scored 101 goals at the Camp Nou. I could leave it at that but I won’t.
Remember all the football pundits who claimed that Messi was going to be worn out from his Copa America exertions over the summer? I think we can safely say that the Argentine has put those questions to bed: four games; six goals. In fact, the two goals he scored against Villarreal on Monday took his home tally to 101 since his debut season in 2004/05. FC Barcelona’s official website broke down the scoring like this:
  • 11/12 season; 2 League, 3 Spanish Super Cup and 1 European Super Cup
  • 10/11; 15 League, 6 Champions League, 6 Spanish Cup and 3 European Super Cup
  • 09/10; 16 League, 7 Champions League, 1 Spanish Cup and 2 Spanish Super Cup
  • 08/09; 8 League, 4 Champions League and 1 Spanish Cup
  • 07/08; 9 League and 2 Champions League
  • 06/07; 8 League and 2 Spanish Cup
  • 05/06; 4 League, 1 Champions League and 1 Spanish Cup
  • 04/05; 1 League

Messi’s first goal came in 2005 in a Liga match against Albacete, but many many memorable strikes have since followed. Which one is your personal favorite?
