Messi Sets New Champions League Record Against Arsenal

Another game and another record set by Lionel Messi - this time at the expense of Arsenal.

The Argentine capped off a 3-1 victory on Wednesday evening with a stunning scooped finish from close range, although the goal of the night was Luis Suarez�s sublime effort to put Barcelona 2-1 up.

But Messi�s goal was his ninth against Arsenal in the Champions League - and no other player in the competition�s history has scored more against a single opponent.
