04.06.10 Messi Breaks Record

Juan and I watched the Barcelona vs. Arsenal soccer game and Leonel Messi scored 4 goals in one game.  He became the first player to score four goals in a two-legged series in the competition and with 25 goals matched Rivaldo as Barcelona's career Champions League scoring leader. The 22-year-old Messi, expected to lead Argentina at the World Cup, has eight Champions League goals this season and moved one ahead of Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo for this season's scoring lead.  It was an amazing game to watch and he is truly an awesome player.  He is the reigning world player of the year and nicknamed the "magician".
