Lionel Messi scored a hat-trick in Friday's 4-0 international friendly win over Guatemala to take his tally of international goals to 35, one more than Diego Maradona's total and put him level with Hernán Crespo as Argentina second highest scorer but is still 21 behind the legendary Gabriel Batistuta.
However, Leo insisted after the game that achieving individual records are not his priority.
"Having overtaken Maradona is not important. The main thing was to end this friendly well as a team, which isn't easy ahead of the holidays," he told TyC Sports when asked about overtaking Maradona's tally.
