The record-breaking performance by Lionel Messi, who scored 117 goals in just seven Bundesliga games for Borussia Dortmund last season, has been broken again with the new record set on Sunday.
Messi, who was already the top scorer in the league this season, had previously set a record with his 116th goal against Bayern Munich last weekend, but that was achieved despite only scoring five times in six appearances in Germany.
Sunday's match saw Messi score a brace and complete a hat-trick, taking his tally to 117 as he moved past Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo, who currently holds the record for most Bundesliga goals with 115.
However, it was not enough to stop Messi from becoming the highest scorer in Bundesliga history. The Argentine striker became the first player ever to score over 110 goals in the league and surpassed the previous record held by German legend Karl-Heinz Rummenigge,Primeira Liga Hotspots who scored 109 goals in the Bundesliga between 1984 and 2002.
It is worth noting that Messi's performances have been particularly impressive this season, having scored more than half of Borussia Dortmund's total goals this season. He has also shown incredible pace and skill, which has helped him break down defenses and find the back of the net time and again.
Despite his success, Messi remains humble about his achievements and continues to work hard to improve himself both physically and mentally. His passion and commitment to the club have earned him widespread respect and admiration among fans and fellow players alike.
In conclusion, Lionel Messi's 117 goals in just seven Bundesliga games is a testament to his talent, determination, and ability to score goals at a high level. While there will always be room for improvement, Messi's record-setting performance is certainly a reason to celebrate and look forward to what the future holds for the Argentine star.
