What happened: Lionel Messi is now the all-time leading goalscorer in World Cup history, reaching 17 goals and moving clear of the field. He sits ahead of Miroslav Klose (16), Ronaldo (15), and Gerd Müller and Kylian Mbappé (14 each) on the tournament's all-time chart.

Why it matters: The mark cements Messi's standing in the game's history at the sport's biggest stage, surpassing a record Klose had held since 2014. Reaching the summit caps a World Cup run that already saw Messi tie the record with a hat trick against Algeria.

What to watch: Watch whether Messi extends the record further as Argentina's run continues, and how far ahead of Klose he finishes the tournament.
