Against how many goalkeepers has Messi scored against?

Since Messi plans to give a beer to all the goalkeepers he scored (1 beer = 1 goal), I will tell you in this post some statistics of Messi with the goalkeepers.

In his career at FC Barcelona, he has faced 198 goalkeepers, 160 of whom he has scored at some time. His worst streak is with Sergey Ryzhikov, whom he could not score in 4 games, while he has been able to do it against Diego Alves 21 times in the 17 times they played.

Gorka Iraizoz was the goalkeeper who received the most free-kick goals, with 5, followed by Beto, Pau López, and Diego López with 3 each. Abbiati and Alves were the two goalkeepers who received the most penalty goals, with 4 each, and it was Rubén and Alves who saved Messi the most penalties, with 2 each. Going to the averages, he has the highest against Ryan, de Vries, Vermeer, and Pavlík, with 3 per game for each.

You can see that he has as much fun as he wants with goalkeepers, and 644 bottles is definitely a lot, just like scoring 644 goals for a single club.
