Messi continues to set new records

Lionel Messi continued to set a new milestone despite not scoring in Argentina's 2-0 win over Peru in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers this morning (November 18).

Against Peru, Messi continued to play the full 90 minutes but failed to score or assist. However, he still had an impact on Argentina's play with his excellent ball distribution.

Messi has equalled the number of appearances for Argentina with the legendary Javier Zanetti (142). The 33-year-old superstar will now aim to break the record held by Mascherano with a total of 147 appearances for the Albiceleste.

With the victory over Peru, Messi has pocketed his 85th win after 142 appearances for the Argentina national team, surpassing his former Barcelona teammate Javier Mascherano (84 wins after 147 appearances).

Real Madrid sells "new rebellious Bale"

The former Malaga star is currently shunned by coach Zinedine Zidane after a series of lackluster performances. This season, Isco has only played 6 matches for Real Madrid, all in La Liga, and has not played the full 90 minutes.

In fact, during his 7 years at Real Madrid, Isco has never taken a starting position for granted like his other midfield teammates, typically Toni Kroos or Luka Modric.

Faced with this situation, Spanish media reported that Los Blancos are ready to sell Isco in the upcoming transfer window for around 22.3 million euros, almost equal to what they paid Malaga to own him in 2013 (30.1 million euros).
