JAKARTA - Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) drew 1-1 with Benfica in the 2022/2023 Champions League continuation, Thursday, October 6, early morning WIB. Lionel Messi scored the only goal for PSG.
Although only one goal, Messi managed to break two records at once. Quoted from OptaJoe, Messi has scored his ninth goal this season.
But more importantly, he became the first player to score against 40 different teams in the tournament's history. La Pulga extended the previous record.
This record shows that Messi is still able to produce golden moments even though he is 35 years old.
Not only that, but this one goal also broke the record for the number of goals scored from outside the penalty box in the Champions League competition.
Messi's record number was obtained during his time at Barcelona by scoring 120 goals which became the second-highest number in the competition.
Unfortunately, one goal from Messi was not able to bring PSG to victory over Benfica. Because the hosts were able to equalize in the 41st minute.
Ironically again, Benfica's goal was born due to their own goal from PSG player, Danilo Pereira.
Despite only winning a draw, PSG remains at the top of Group H. The Ligue 1 club has collected seven points from two wins and one draw.
While Benfica occupies second place in the standings with the same value. However, they lost on goal difference to PSG.
