Messi has just reached the milestone of 300 career assists but was “ignored” by his teammates on the pitch.

PSG have laid their hand on the Ligue 1 title this season after a 2-1 win at Auxerre. The Parisian team has 84 points, 6 points more than the second placed Lens and the tournament has only 2 days left to finish. The sub-status gap between the two teams at the moment is +16 in favor of PSG (+50 and +34). Therefore, the opportunity of Lens is actually only in theory.

Messi reaches 300 assists in his career

The person who is mentioned a lot by the French media in this PSG victory is Kylian Mbappé, the player who scored both goals for the Parisian team in this match. However, netizens disagreed with that opinion when many people uttered Lionel Messi’s name.

The Argentinian superstar has 1 assist to help Mbappé score and that is Messi’s 16th assist this season in Ligue 1. This achievement makes Messi unique in the position of “King of assists” when he is better than the person ranked first. the second is Neymar with 5 assists. This is also the 300th assist in Messi’s professional career.

According to Squawka’s statistics, Messi is the only player with assists and goals scored above 20 in all competitions. That is a really respectable achievement for a player who is about to turn 36 years old. Not only that, Messi has a chance to break the assists/season record in Ligue 1 if he has 2 more assists in the last 2 games.

Messi tries to pass 3 players and then his teammates… pass back home

However, this is not the focus of discussion among netizens at the moment. A question that is trending on the social network “Twitter” is “Why did Messi score so much less when he went to PSG?” A spectator proves the situation that was experienced at the last minute in the last game of the Parisian team.

Messi tried to dribble past three Auxerre players down the right and then passed the ball to Renato Sanches hoping to get a rebound from his teammate to face the opposing goalkeeper. But no, Sanches kept the ball and then returned it, leaving Messi behind.

Immediately, another public summed up that Messi was rejected by his teammates 7 times in the last 10 minutes of the game! PSG’s number 30 is usually in a favorable position to shoot, but his teammates take it upon themselves to… pass in another direction. I still know that Messi is no longer the center of all the balls like in Barcelona, but the way this player is treated in the PSG field is really bad.
