Lionel Messi goals for Argentina

Lionel Messi has scored 106 goals in 180 appearances for Argentina since making his debut in 2005.

That puts him a long way clear as his country's all-time leading scorer – with Gabriel Batistuta (56 goals in 78 games) in second.

Messi could still add to that tally as he remains the Argentina captain, though he has suggested he may not make it to another major tournament, with the Copa America next on the schedule in 2024.
