Video: Lionel Messi scores for Argentina against Egypt to match Guillermo Stabile’s 96-year-old record
Lionel Messi scored Argentina's equalizer against Egypt, matching a historic 96-year-old record held by Guillermo Stabile. Lionel Messi continues to rewrite the record books at the 2026 World Cup. The captain scored for Argentina in the Round of 16 clash against Egypt at Atlanta Stadium to level the score, and in doing so matched a mark that had stood untouched for nearly a century. Trailing 2-1, Argentina pushed for the equalizer, and they’d find it after a scramble of rebounds inside the box, where Messi found space to meet the loose ball and drilled a powerful strike that was impossible to stop, leveling the score. With that strike, the Argentine captain moved to eight goals in this year’s tournament, matching Guillermo Stabile’s long-standing record of eight goals in a single World Cup edition, set at the inaugural 1930 tournament — a mark that had stood for 96 years. After scoring a crucial goal that fueled Argentina’s impressive 3-2 comeback, the Argentine captain now stands alone atop the scoring table with eight goals, one clear of Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland.
