Messi scores 100th international goal FMTNews FMTSports
SANTIAGO DEL ESTERO: Argentina captain Lionel Messi on Tuesday scored his 100th international goal for the reigning world champions in a low-key friendly against Curacao.
Messi came into the game not just as his country’s all-time record goalscorer, but with more goals than the next two top marksmen – Gabriel Batistuta on 56 and Sergio Aguero with 41 – put together. The Central Americans had held out until the 78th minute before 21-year-old MLS sensation Thiago Almada broke their resistence.
