He is used to setting new records for his goalscoring achievements and Lionel Messi’s penalty against Cadiz set another one for the Barcelona star.
The Argentine netted from the spot in Sunday’s 1-1 draw, meaning that he has now scored against 37 of the 38 Spanish sides whom he has faced on more than once occasion.
Watch: Ice-cold Lionel Messi converts penalty against Cadiz
The only team from Spain that Messi has faced two or more times without scoring a goal is Xerez – also ironically from the province of Cadiz in Andalusia – and who are now in the fourth tier of Spanish football, so any re-match is extremely unlikely.
The 33-year-old has also not found the net in the one-off matches he has played against both Real Murcia and Gramanet.
Furthermore, Messi has not netted against Inter, Rubin Kazan, Udinese, Benfica and Qatari club Al Sadd, as per Goal.com.
