WATCH: Messi sets Argentine goal-scoring record with laser free kick

Lionel Messi and free kicks from inside 30 yards? Danger. Danger Will Robinson.

In this case it was danger USMNT, and Messi made them pay for a foul in a big way. Skying a ball that Brad Guzan or any other keeper the world over wouldn’t have stopped, Messi netted one of his best free kicks ever.

He also set the all-time goals record for an Argentinian in international play with his 55th goal for his country. Just pure brilliance.
