Lionel Messi scored a stunning long-range equaliser for Paris Saint-Germain against Troyes on Saturday to continue his hot streak of goal scoring form.
It was the Argentine superstar’s 12th strike of the season for Christophe Galtier’s side – a figure that has already surpassed his goal tally from the entirety of last campaign under Mauricio Pochettino. It also means that he has eight goals in his last eight matches.
The goal came 10 minutes into the second half and just three minutes after PSG fell behind to their opponents for the second time in the game. The home side had struggled to break down the visitors throughout the encounter and appeared set to be enduring a frustrating afternoon. Messi provided the assist for Neymar to give PSG the lead, as they eventually ran out 4-3 victors.
