Messi scored a free kick, scored a direct free kick for the 69th career

On the morning of July 13, Miami International played against Nashville at home. In the 17th minute, Messi scored a free kick, which was his 69th free kick in his career. Messi has scored 5 goals in the last 3 games.

After ending the Club World Cup journey, Miami International has achieved good results recently and has won two consecutive victories. In these two games, Messi scored twice, and he was 38 years old and could not stop him. The defenders of the US League could not defend him at all.

Today, Messi continued to start and led the team to face Nashville. In the 17th minute, Miami International won a free kick with a very good position, and the penalty spot was at the top of the arc of the penalty area. Messi stood in front of the ball with no choice, and his teammates were looking forward to his goal.

Messi lives up to expectations! He barely had a run-up and shot directly with his left foot. Unlike before, Messi played a low ball this time, and the ball rolled towards the goal against the ground. Because the ball had a large arc along the way, the goalkeeper could not react in time and could only watch the ball enter the net.

This is Messi's 69th direct free kick in his career. In the football history, Messi ranks third in the third place, and only 1 goal away from second place Pele. The first place is Brazilian legend Juninho, who scored a total of 77 direct free kicks in his career. Messi was also extremely excited after scoring the goal. He first opened his arms and accepted the cheers of the fans. Then, Messi jumped high, slapped his fist to celebrate, and made a move of pointing his hands to the sky.

Messi has scored 5 goals in the last 3 games, which makes people sigh that age is just a number in front of him.
