The historic hat-trick for Lionel Messi, the first foreigner to score in a single Ligue 1 match, has been broken by his teammate, Antoine Griezmann.
Messi scored the opening goal on Sunday, a stunning display that saw him become the youngest player ever to score in a single Ligue 1 game. However, it was Griezmann who broke the record as he scored twice in just five minutes against Montpellier.
Griezmann's goal came after a brilliant run down the left flank that saw him create space for himself and Messi to take the ball into the box. He then headed past goalkeeper Adil Rami with a perfect pass that took Messi along the right side of the penalty area.
It was a spectacular display from Griezmann, who is known for his incredible skill and ability to score goals. His goal against Montpellier was one of the highlights of the season so far, but it wasn't enough to break the record set by Lionel Messi.
However, Griezmann's performance was not all about scoring goals. He also played well defensively, making crucial saves to prevent the hosts from scoring.
Overall, Griezmann's performance was a highlight of the season so far, and it will be interesting to see how he performs in the upcoming matches. However, it remains to be seen whether he will be able to continue his impressive form and help Barcelona achieve their ambitious La Liga title ambitions this season.
