When it comes to Lionel Messi, you could be excused for thinking that there are no more records left to break, but the Barcelona great has just set a big one -- and it was one he almost missed altogether.
With his 65th-minute strike against Real Valladolid on Dec. 22, Messi scored his 644th goal for Barca, breaking a long-standing record set by none other than the great Pele almost half a century ago. Astonishingly, Messi has scored more goals for one single club than any other player in the history of soccer.
