Messi Becomes First Player to Score 400 La Liga Goals
Lionel Messi became the first player to score 400 La Liga goals after scoring against Eibar on Sunday.
With his goal, Messi extended his record as the highest scorer in the Spanish top flight's history.
Incredibly, Messi only took 435 games to get to his 400th goal, scoring an average of 0.92 goals per game.
Among his 400 finishes are 83 braces and 31 hat-tricks, helping to put him 89 goals ahead of the league's second top-scorer Ronaldo.
Next on the list is Telmo Zarra, who played for Athletic Bilbao from 1940 to 1955, with 251 efforts. He is followed by Mexican Hugo Sanchez with 234 and Real Madrid legend, Raul with 228.
Messi's dominance has not been limited to the league though, and in all competitions, he has scored 575 goals.
That gives him a big lead over Luis Suarez, who is the second-highest active scorer for Barca with 166 tallies.
