Lionel Messi equalled Brazil legend Pele's record of 643 goals for a single club after scoring for Barcelona in their 2 all draw against Valencia.

33-year-old Messi achieved the feat with a diving header just before half-time, immediately after his penalty was saved.

Messi scored his first goal for Barca in 2005.

Pele scored 643 goals in 19 seasons for Brazilian side Santos between 1956 and 1974.
