Barcelona superstar Messi sets another record with 15th Clasico goal in La Liga

The mercurial Argentine was on target once again in a meeting with Real Madrid on Sunday, allowing him to pass Alfredo Di Stefano on the all-time list

The records continue to tumble for Lionel Messi, with the Barcelona star now the leading goalscorer in El Clasico in La Liga after equalising against Real Madrid.

The mercurial Argentine netted his 15th league goal in meetings between Spain’s big two at Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday.

Another memorable individual effort helped Barca to draw level on the night, following Casemiro’s opener for the hosts, but also carried Messi clear at the top of another notable chart.
