Messi has never reached these figures, even in the 2011/12 campaign when he scored 73 goals and assisted another 29 in 5,221 minutes, with a ratio of a goal or an assist every 51 minutes.
Following Atleti’s 2-1 victory against Juventus, Joao has now featured in 43 games as a professional player, scoring 20 goals and providing 11 assists.
