In heaven after the Spanish Cup final won in front of Athletic Bilbao, Lionel Messi offered his 34th trophy with the Catalans. The 35th of his professional career. The 10 Catalan also took care of his statistics in the final.
You should have seen the wide smile displayed by Lionel Messi when lifting the Copa del Rey trophy on Saturday night after slaughtering Atlhetic Bilbao (4-0). It must be said that the Argentine genius has been waiting for this for several months. He who has gone through all the emotions in recent months in Catalonia.
But beyond this well-deserved title, the Pulga’s figures in the final are simply impressive. Author of a double, the multiple Golden Ball has scored 31 goals in the last 34 he has played. Mind-blowing!
For comparison, Robert Lewandowski has only 7 goals at the same stage, Cristiano Ronaldo (19), Neymar (8), Kylian Mbappé (2), Zlatan Ibrahimovic (12), Luis Suarez (9). That is to say !
