Lionel Messi, forward of the Argentina national team, having provided an assist in yesterday's match of the 2022 World Cup 1/4 finals with the Netherlands (2: 1), broke one of the World Cup records.
Now, the 35-year-old football player is fifth in the playoffs of the current World Cup, which is a new world championship record since such statistics began to be kept (since 1966). The previous achievement belonged to the legendary Brazilian Pele, who has four assists in the World Cup playoffs.
