Messi has scored 62 goals in 80 CL matches.

Ronaldo has scored 54 goals in 96 CL matches.

Says it all.

Barçapocalypse NOW!
For a guy with barely any pre-season he's doing alright, you know... He's still a little sloppy, yes, but still he won this game on his own...

Messi (4) surpasses Inzaghi and Mario Gomez (3) to become the 1st player ever to score 4 times 3+ goals in a CL game [via @pedritonumeros]

Messi: "It was important to start with a win at home. Nice hat-trick? Thank you very much."

Messi: "I think it's good we add alternatives to our game, we also have players to play a good counter-attack."

Messi: "The shot with my knee was intended? Yes, it was... (smiles)"

Messi: "Martino's father died? Difficult, we support him. He'll go to Argentina to be with his family, which is the important thing now."

I really don't know where would Barca be without this guy.
Must be frustrating for defenders going into match after knowing he would answer Ronaldo's hattrick.. And yet there's nothing you can do to stop it.

With his three goals against Ajax, Leo Messi become the first player to ever score four hat tricks in the history of the Champions League. Barça’s No10 surpasses Mario Gomez, who scored three hat tricks with Bayern Munich and Filipo Inzaghi, who scored three during his time at Milan and Juventus.

This is the fourth time that Messi has trotted off to the Barça dressing room after a Champions League game with the match ball under his arm, a custom afforded to hat trick scorers as a symbolic award for netting three goals.

The Argentine player, who played the entire 90 minutes against Ajax, had six goalscoring chances, of those four attempts were on goal. He was fouled twice and ran a total of 8,647 meters, according to UEFA.

Closing in on Raúl

In addition to setting another record this evening, Messi reached 62 goals in the Champions League since his debut on December 7 of 2004 in Donetsk. He’s the second highest scorer of the competition, just behind Raúl González (71).

After the match, Messi highlighted the importance of “starting off on the right foot” in the group stage of the European competition. He also said that Barça’s first half wasn’t excellent, but “as the minutes passed we adapted well to what we had to do.”

“You only know what you’ve got when it’s gone.”

Enjoy this legend while he lasts fellow cules...

The amount of bashing and negativity against a player who may actually be one of the best Footballers ever is just simply astonishing.

We got some highlights today and more importantly a strong start to our Champions league!

9 goals and 1 assist in 4 games.... Well it's official, superhuman is now an understatement in describing him.

Still doesn't stop plenty of people here from criticizing him every game when he doesn't immediately produced or plays to perfection.
