Summary
Messi just shattered the World Cup assist record with his 10th in the tournament, setting up Mac Allister’s goal against Switzerland and leaving Fritz Walter in the dust. Every one of his assists has gone to a different teammate — a staggering feat. At 39, he’s still dominating, creating chances, taking shots, and dribbling past defenders, earning praise from coach Scaloni as “a machine.” With 10 total goal contributions (8 goals, 2 assists), he joins Mbappé as the only player to hit that mark in back-to-back World Cups. Even with historical record discrepancies, Messi’s dominance is undeniable — he’s already surpassed Maradona and stands alone as the all-time assist leader, proving age is just a number on the biggest stage.
