On May 23, 2021, Messi scored a goal in Barcelona's home match against Haval, a goal that made him La Liga's all-time leading goal scorer. It was a remarkable achievement because Messi didn't just break the La Liga goalscoring record, he also made an 84-year-old history.

Messi's goal-scoring rivalry

The 2020-2021 La Liga season saw a fierce battle for the goal-scoring crown between Messi and Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo. Messi scored 30 goals during the season, while Ronaldo scored 29.
