Messi Makes History with Seven Straight World Cup Goals
Lionel Messi became the first player ever to score in seven consecutive World Cup matches after curling home a free kick in Argentina’s 3-1 win over Jordan. His goal extended a record World Cup tally to 19. This remarkable streak began at the 2022 Qatar finals and continued through the 2026 tournament. He scored against Australia, the Netherlands, Croatia and France before netting a hat-trick against Algeria and a brace versus Austria. Some doubted Messi’s consistency after his move to MLS. He didn’t manage seven straight goals in that league. Yet at 39, he’s still outshining younger stars like Haaland and Mbappé. Meanwhile, a Saudi forward grabbed headlines with two goals against Uzbekistan but faded when facing tougher competition. What a delusional clown.
