Lionel Messi is just one goal away from becoming only the second player ever after Cristiano Ronaldo to reach the 800-goal milestone.
The PSG star scored his 799 goal on Saturday against Nantes. On Thursday, he will have the chance to achieve the historic feat when PSG will face Bayern Munich in the second leg of their Champions League round-of-16 tie. Bayern lead 1-0 from the first leg.
Since turning pro 19 years ago, Messi has been stockpiling trophies at an absurdly consistent rate. In fact, 2013-14 and 2019-20 were the only trophyless seasons of his career.
