Ex-forward of the national team of Argentina Gabriel Batistuta said that he was disappointed by the fact that Lionel Messi broke his record in the number of goals for the national team.
"Messi's record? I was enraged by this. Very much enraged. This record was a recognition, a great recognition of my merit, "- quotes Batistuti Mundo Deportivo.
"I had 54 goals on my account, and Messi now ... I do not know how much, but more than me. As a result, he will score twice as much as I managed to do. I liked to have this record. At least, he was beaten by an alien, "said Batistuta.
In 77 matches for the national team of Argentina, Batistuta scored 54 goals. On Messi's account 61 goals in 123 games.
Let's note that Sergio Aguero was the third in the list of goalscorers in the history of Argentina.
