Paris Saint-Germain forward Lionel Messi has broken Cristiano Ronaldo’s record for the most goals scored across Europe’s top five leagues.
Messi netted his 496th goal to help PSG win the Ligue 1 title on Saturday.
The 35-year-old opened the scoring in the second half, finishing off Kylian Mbappe’s pass.
PSG ended up drawing the game 1-1 as Kevin Gameiro scored an equaliser for Strasbourg.
But it didn’t matter, as all the reigning champions needed to avoid defeat at the Stade de la Meinau to retain their trophy.
It’s Messi’s second league title in France, and he will have one final home game to extend the record come next Saturday when Clermont Foot come to the capital.
