Paris Saint-Germain forward, Lionel Messi, has achieved an incredible feat for the first time since the 2019-2020 season with Barcelona after providing an assist in the Parisians’ Ligue 1 win against Angers.
Messi produced an assist for teammate Kylian Mbappe in PSG’s 2-1 Ligue 1 win over Angers at the weekend to take his tally to 15 this season.
The Argentina World Cup winner is now the leading assist provider in the French league this term.
Messi also has 15 Ligue 1 goals. The last time he managed this feat was in 2019-2020, when he bagged 25 goals and registered 21 assists in 33 La Liga games for Barca.
The numbers show that apart from his goal-scoring prowess, the 35-year-old is just as good a playmaker.
