Successfully advancing with the Argentine national team at the World Cup, forward Lionel Messi broke another record.
In yesterday's round of 16 match (2:1) against Australia, the 35-year-old Argentine was named the best player of the game.
Such a title - already the eighth in the footballer's career and with this achievement he surpassed his eternal rival Cristiano Ronaldo (7) and became the sole World Cup record holder.
However, Portugal is still playing in the World Cup and their leader will have a chance to catch up with the Argentine talent.
On Tuesday, Portugal will meet Switzerland in the round of 16 match.
