Lionel Messi surpassed Miroslav Klose's record to become the highest goalscorer in men's World Cup history, scoring twice against Austria in Argentina's 2-0 win.
The Argentine captain found the back of the net in the 39th and 90th minutes, moving past the German legend's 16 goals at the tournament.
Messi's record-breaking strike came just days after he rolled back the years in Argentina's tournament opener against Algeria, delivering a hat-trick in a 3-0 victory.
The 37-year-old's performance against Austria confirmed Argentina's qualification for the Round of 32.
France's Kylian Mbappe stands as the biggest threat to Messi's mark, with the 27-year-old taking his World Cup tally to 14 goals after scoring a brace in France's opening win against Senegal.
