WATCH: Lionel Messi ties Argentina's all-time goal record by nutmegging goalkeeper

Lionel Messi is one more goal away from taking yet another record in his historic career. With his goal in the Copa America Centenario quarterfinals against Venezuela tonight he's tied Gabriel Batistuta as Argentina's all-time goal scorer.

His cheeky finish between the goalkeeper's legs made it 3-0 on the night as Argentina are waltzing into the semifinals to face the United States.

It's his 56th career goal for Argentina. His next tally will officially make him the king of Argentina's goal charts.
