Lionel Messi received a tribute from FC Barcelona for beating César Rodríguez’ all-time historic top goal scoring record of 232 goals. Messi broke the legendary mark with a hat-trick against Granada, which took his tally to 234 goals in official matches.
The Club organized the tribute for the Argentine to coincide with tonight’s match against Athletic Club. First, an event was scheduled for the family of César to hand over the honour to Messi’s family. The symbolic transfer of the historical record was made with a Barça jersey and President Sandro Rosell gave signed boots from both the goal scorers to the families of both footballers.
Emma Revillo, widow of the Five Cup striker, and Julia Ischerland, granddaughter of the player, met with Rodrigo Messi, brother of the Argentine. They were all photographed in the presidential box at the Camp Nou. Vice president of the Athletic Area, Josep Bartomeu, director of football, Andoni Zubizarreta, and president of the Barça Players Association, Ramon Alfonseda Pous were present.
