The Argentine scored the fastest goal of his career at 119 seconds and embarrassed Courtois.

It is already Viral on YouTube. The Argentine Leo Messi (Barcelona) has become, after the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid), the second player to reach one hundred goals in the Champions League after scoring two against Chelsea, the first of them at 119 seconds of the match, the fastest of his career.

The Rosario player was a key piece in Barcelona's advancement to the quarter-finals. He scored the first goal of the match, assisted Dembélé in the second, and ended the match with a third goal in the 64th minute.

However, the video that keeps getting shared on YouTube is the one of 'Lio's' first goal because Chelsea only made two touches from the start of the match until the Argentine's goal.

The data provides interesting statistics. Barcelona has only lost three matches when Messi has scored, while Cristiano has scored two or more goals on 32 different occasions.

The top scorer of the competition is Cristiano Ronaldo, with 117 goals. Both Messi and Cristiano left Raúl González behind some time ago, who stayed at 71 goals.
