Lionel Messi has been very important at PSG, which is close to winning the title. While in France they criticize him, the Argentine continues to be key because in the 2-1 against Auxerre he assisted Kylian Mbappé in a goal and reached 20 goal passes in the season in 39 games. Not only that he reached a personal round double mark (he also has 20 goals) but that he is averaging 0.51 assists per game which gives him one of the highest of his career over 19 seasonswith only three best records in his Barcelona days.
Lionel Messi – 22-5-2023
Assistance from Messi and great goal from Mbappé
BIG NUMBERS
Of those 20 assists, four were for the Champions League while 16 were in Ligue 1, where that statistic dominates.. But it is also one of the best in the most important championships in Europe to the point that also counting England, Italy, Spain and Germany, only a specialist in the field like Kevin De Bruyne at Manchester City distributed more assists, with 18 in the Premier that they have just won.
Leo has two more games left (vs. Strasbourg and against Clermont Foot) to continue adding numbers that for him may be one more but that would mean a lot. At 35 years old, he shows that he is not only valid from the net and being a scorer (as in the World Cup with the National Team) but with those key passes for him to define a teammate. AND, Mbappé is usually the main recipient: 13 of those 20 Lionel assists went to Kylian. Undoubtedly, the duo works very well inside and beyond the fact that Leo is about to leave Paris and is waiting to define his future while all of Barcelona hopes that the return is possible from the economic point of view.
THE SEASONS WITH THE BEST AVERAGE ASSISTANCE BY MESSI
2019/20: 27 in 44 games played with Barcelona. Average of 0.61 per game.
