- A proven evidence shows Messi is one of football greats
- Statistics shows the Barcelona star runs less and does more in games
- Messi will be on parade when Barcelona takes on Roma
Recent statistics in the Champions League revealed that Barcelona star Lionel Messi has been absolutely amazing.
According to the observation,the 30-year-old has scored six goals at every one minute and he has barely broken a sweat.
The charismatic Argentine has hardly had to run to score those amazing goals compared to the distance his opponents cover.
With just an average of 89.9m run per minute in this season's Champions League, Messi has the lowest tally of all leading forwards.
In fact, he comes in miles behind second-to-last place Romelu Lukaku who averages 99.6m per minute while Manchester United were still in the competition.
Bayern Munich's Thomas Muller leads the way, running a gut-busting 124.8m per minute in this season's Champions League as he tops the chart.
Tottenham's Harry Kane, Paris Saint-Germain's Edinson Cavani and Neymar complete the top four, all at over 112m run per minute.
Despite his comparative lack of running, what the five-time Ballon d'Or does do while on the ball can not be measured as he has proven for well over a decade now.
In addition, the Barcelona star has added two assists in Europe's elite competition as the Catalan giants brace up for their quarter final clash with Serie A side Roma.
Messi has a 100 goals to his name in the competition already, and he poised to lead Barca to a treble winning feat with his eye-catching performances in all competitions.
