Football fans have resorted to social media to tip their hats to Lionel Messi after he recorded his 300th club career assist on Saturday night.

Paris Saint-Germain turned their attention to Ligue 1 clash against Brest after being sent packing from the Champions League in midweek following their 3-0 aggregate loss to Bayern Munich.

With a full 90 minutes on the clock, however, the Parisians looked primed for a second upsetting result on the bounce.

This came after Carlos Soler's 37th-minute goal was cancelled out by Franck Honorat for the Pirates six minutes later inside the first half.
