Messi has scored 90 international goals since making his debut for Argentina in 2005.

Lionel Messi is an Argentine professional footballer who has represented the Argentina national football team as a forward since his debut in 2005. Since then, Messi has scored 90 goals in 164 international appearances,[1] making him the country's all-time top scorer; he surpassed Gabriel Batistuta's record of 54 goals with a free kick against the United States in the semi-finals of the Copa América Centenario on 21 June 2016.[2][3] He also holds the record for most goals by a South American male, surpassing Pelé‘s 77 goals with a hat-trick against Bolivia in September 2021.[4] Messi made his debut for Argentina in a 2–1 away win over Hungary on 17 August 2005,[5] and scored his first international goal a year later in his sixth appearance for his country against Croatia.[1]

Messi's goal against Serbia and Montenegro, on 16 June 2006, made him the youngest-ever scorer for Argentina at a FIFA World Cup when he was 18 years and 357 days old.[6] He has scored eight international hat-tricks, and has netted twice in a match (also known as a brace) on ten occasions.[1] In a June 2022 friendly against Estonia, Messi scored five goals in an international match for the first time.[7] Messi has scored the most times against Bolivia, with eight total goals against the side.[1]

Messi has scored 28 goals in FIFA World Cup qualifiers. He has scored thirteen goals in the Copa América,[1] leading his team to victory in the 2021 edition of the tournament, also finishing as runner-up in 2007, 2015, and 2016. At the 2015 tournament, he allegedly rejected the Best Player award and the trophy was omitted from the ceremony,[8][9] although he did win and accept the honour in 2021. Messi has scored six times in FIFA World Cup tournaments:[1] once in 2006, four times in 2014, when he guided his team to the final and was awarded the Golden Ball, and once in 2018.[10] The remainder of Messi's goals, 43, have come in friendlies.[1]
