Lionel Messi sets World Cup goal-scoring record vs Austria

Lionel Messi further separated himself from the rest of soccer history on Monday as he set a record for the most goals of all time in the FIFA World Cup.

Messi was charging down the field behind Argentina’s attack. The Austrian defense seemed to be too focused on the ball and lost track of Messi as he filtered in behind them. Messi got the pass and fired the shot past the goalkeeper in the 38th minute and scored.
