LIGUE 1: LIONEL MESSI ACHIEVES REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT FOLLOWING PSG'S RECENT VICTORY

Lionel Messi of Paris Saint-Germain accomplished an extraordinary achievement for the first time since the 2019-2020 season with Barcelona after delivering an assist in the Parisians' Ligue 1 game against Angers.

Messi assisted teammate Kylian Mbappe in PSG's 2-1 Ligue 1 win over Angers over the weekend, bringing his season total to 15.

Argentina's World Cup winner is currently the French league's best assist provider this season.

Messi has 15 goals in Ligue 1. He last accomplished this record in 2019-2020, when he scored 25 goals and assisted on 21 others in 33 La Liga appearances for Barcelona.

The data demonstrate that, in addition to his goal-scoring ability, the 35-year-old is an excellent playmaker.
