Lionel Messi set a La Liga scoring record of 253 goals with a hat-trick in Barcelona's 5-1 win over Sevilla.
Messi needed 289 games, while Telmo Zarra set it in 277 appearances. Zarra, who played for Athletic, had the record since 1955.
“We are all very happy and of course also for Leo,” Xavi, the Barça captain, said. “He has achieved an amazing and historic record.”
