Who leads that ranking is the Argentine Lionel Messi with 713 goals in the same number of matches mentioned above. That is to say, 69% of the sacred cries sung by the captain of the Inter Miami were converted anyway, while the missing 31% of his 821 were from the white point.

For its part, if the penalty goals are deducted from Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese would have 712 goals in his basket, that is, 58% of his total.
