Messi heading towards new scoring records this season?

Leo Messi has been on an incredible scoring streak of 14 consecutive matches in La Liga. As of Monday, 18th of February 2013, and after 24 Liga matches in the 2012/13 season, he sums up an impressive total 37 goals (1.54 / match). If he keeps scoring at this pace, and does not suffer any injury (which only haters would hope for) until the end of the season, Messi would be heading towards a new scoring record of 58 goals in a domestic league.

Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are outstanding scoring machines. Their numbers allow a lot of exciting statistics to surface. The table of goals scored per team, with the inclusion of the top 2 strikers, is definitely worth a look.

Also, Messi is only one goal shy from the total scored by the Real Madrid attacking trio : Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and ‘El Pipa’ Hiugain.
