Today, Fc Barcelona and Argentina forward Leo Messi beat Gerd Muller’s record of goals scored in a single calendar year. During the 1972 season, Muller scored 85 goals in 60 games and Messi broke this 40 year old standing record with 66 games played. Considering that there’s still a lot of games to play this year, only the soccer ‘gods’ can tell where Messi’s goal tally (which will be a record to reckon) will be come January 1st 2013.
