Messi breaks Argentina's oldest goal scorer record at 38 years, 11 months, 18 days

In a friendly match held this morning, the Argentine team defeated Iceland 3-0. Messi came on as a substitute and converted a penalty in the 72nd minute, helping the team extend their lead to 2-0.

In the 69th minute of the match, Messi came on as a substitute, marking his 199th appearance for the national team. He delivered a brilliant through ball in just 53 seconds, and Lautaro Martinez was fouled in the box while shooting. The referee awarded a penalty, which Messi then converted.

This was Messi's 117th goal for the national team, and at 38 years, 11 months, and 18 days old, he broke Ángel Labruna's record as the oldest goalscorer for the Argentine national team. Labruna's previous record was set in 1957 against Brazil when he was 38 years, 9 months, and 10 days old.
