Estonia won’t remember this as a particularly bright day.They got beaten 5-0 by Argentina in a friendly in which Messi scored all 5 goals.
Not his top 5 goals but 5 in the same game – which must be some kind of a record.(It is – he is now the second-highest goal-scorer in history behind Cristiano Ronaldo. Messi now has 769 career goals for club and country while Ronaldo leads the way with 813 goals in his career.Pele has got left behind)
Messi started his record run with a penalty
