The record for the Most goals scored by a player for a single club which was long held for close to 5 decades by Edson Arantes do Nascimento aka Pelé of 643 goals for Brazilian club Santos was equalled yesterday by Lionel Messi for FC Barcelona.
More to note is the fact that Messi did it in 2 seasons fewer (17) than Pelé (19) and will set his own record the very next time he scores for FC Barcelona.
In South America Pelé also stands the chance of losing another record to the same Lionel Messi for the most international goals scored, with Messi's 70 goals only behind Pelé's 77.
