How many goals does Messi need to be Argentina’s top scorer at the World Cup?
Lionel Messi has several records ahead of him that he can break Qatar World Cup 2022. Among them, and perhaps one of the most difficult, is to become the Argentine top scorer at the World Cup.
The record belongs to Gabriel Batistuta, who scored ten goals. For his part, Leo has six goals, so he needs to score four to equal him and five to surpass him. Until now, the former Barcelona player has never scored so many goals in any of the four seasons he has played.
Bati scored ten goals in just 12 games, while Messi scored six in 19 games: one in Germany 2006, four in Brazil 2014 and another in Russia 2018.
