Messi eyeing Pele's recordpublished at 19:59 British Summer Time 5 September 2021
Brazil v Argentina (20:00 BST)

An interesting subplot tonight - Lionel Messi could become the highest-scoring South American footballer if he bags a couple of goals.
One goal and he will move level with Pele on 77, two and he will surpass the Brazil legend.
An added bit of intrigue - especially given it will be against Brazil he takes the record, should he grab a couple of goals.
