Messi in May: Best player of the season and in the world

After May ended, and the club season as well, it's time to collect all of Messi's stats in the last month. He has shown once again why many consider him one of, if not the best player in the world as of today, even when he's almost 34 years old.


He played 4 games in the last month of his club season, and his stats were the following: 4 goals, 1 pre-assist, 4 big chances created, 1 through-ball, 9 key passes, 8 SoT (22 in total), 50 duels won out of 69, 16 fouls won, 43 pressures (17 successful), 213 passes, 374 touches, 2 MoTM according to WhoScored and having an average match rating of 8.79 (according to WhoScored once again).

With his team, he ended up 3rd in La Liga with 79 points, which is disappointing but understandable considering the amount of mistakes that were made in numerous games (losing important points).

These were his highlights of the month on video:


The objective for June will be to focus on the national team, specifically in the upcoming 2022 World Cup qualifiers and the Copa América. That is all for today, so as always I hope you liked this entry and I'll see you in the next blog.
