In the match against Australia - the fastest goal of L. Messi's career © AP

Miami's "Inter" newcomer Lionel Messi continues to demonstrate fantastic form representing the Argentine national team.

In the World Cup quarterfinal rematch, Argentina defeated Australia 2-0.

Lionel Messi scored the fastest goal in his career. After 1 minute and 20 seconds, the football legend sent the ball into the net with a technical strike.

However, Messi has never scored a goal in the first minute of a match during his career. This feat has been achieved by Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Suarez, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who have each scored at least once every minute of a match.

Speaking of the same match, in the 68th minute, German Pezzella, who had just come off the bench, doubled the advantage for the Argentines.

On Monday, the world champions will face Indonesia, but Lionel Scaloni will likely use the reserve lineup, where Messi should not feature.
