Lionel Messi set another World Cup scoring record today. ⚽️
Argentina’s captain scored against Cabo Verde in Miami Gardens, Florida, becoming the first men’s player to score in eight consecutive World Cup matches. The goal was Messi’s 20th in men’s World Cup play and his seventh of the 2026 tournament.
Messi had already made it seven straight with a free kick against Jordan on June 27. At age 39 and in his sixth World Cup, he keeps extending a tournament resume that already included the men’s all-time scoring record.
