Lionel Messi netted the opener for Paris Saint-Germain against Nantes on Saturday as the seven-time Ballon d'Or hit yet another remarkable career milestone.
The 35-year-old got on the end of Nuno Mendes' deflected cross to poke the ball into the back of the net beyond Alban Lafont. It was a terrific first-time finish from Messi, who celebrated with the rest of his PSG teammates as he reached a mind-blowing landmark.
Messi's strike against Nantes was the 1000th goal he has either scored or assisted in his club career - almost 20 years since his first contribution while playing for Barcelona. Breaking the statistic down, Messi has scored 701 goals and chipped in with 299 assists in that time for Barca and PSG since his debut in 2004.
