FootballThierry Henry blown away by Lionel Messi goal that wasn't 'normal'
- Messi's ability to score wonder goals sets him apart from other world-class players
- Thierry Henry considers a less-known Messi goal to be the best he's ever seen
- Messi's unmatched control and skill make him a once-in-a-lifetime talent
Lionel Messi has consistently turned scoring extraordinary goals into a routine throughout his exceptional career.
If you were to compile a list of the 30 most outstanding goals by the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner, it's safe to say that most elite players can only dream of replicating any one of them.
Especially during his prime, Messi displayed a remarkable ability to effortlessly manoeuvre past opponents, resulting in a truly astonishing number of individual goals.
While his Diego Maradona-esque run against Getafe remains etched in our memories as a potential pinnacle, Messi's peak era was marked by numerous goals where he effortlessly glided past multiple defenders.
This uniqueness sets Messi apart, as even one of his seemingly forgotten goals could be hailed by someone as among the greatest they've ever witnessed.
Enter Thierry Henry, widely regarded as the greatest player in Premier League history, who singles out a lesser-known gem as Messi's finest strike in his eyes.
This choice may seem unorthodox, as it doesn't necessarily populate the top-ten lists, but when the Frenchman dissects it, the reasoning becomes clear.
