El astro argentino ya tiene el récord en los clasificatorios de CONMEBOL y está muy cerca de los "killers" de Europa y Asia. ¿Quién es el insólito líder mundial?

Con su “hat trick” de este martes frente a Bolivia, el argentino Lionel Messi pasó a liderar la tabla de goleadores de la presente Eliminatoria Sudamericana rumbo al Mundial 2026, con 6 tantos, a pesar de haberse perdido varios partidos por lesión.
Además, estiró su ventaja como máximo artillero histórico de la competición, ya que ahora acumula 34 goles en 67 participaciones en cinco ciclos (desde el clasificatorio para Sudáfrica 2010), por 29 de su amigo e inmediato perseguidor, el uruguayo Luis Suárez, quien además ya anunció su retiro.
En el ranking los siguen el boliviano Marcelo Moreno Martins (22), el chileno Alexis Sánchez y el argentino -ya retirado- Hernán Crespo, con 19.
A nivel mundial Messi ocupa todavía la cuarta posición del ranking, por delante del polaco Robert Lewandoski (30) y ya a solo un gol del tercero, el iraní Alí Daei (35), máximo goleador de las Eliminatorias asiáticas.
En la comparación que todos tienen en mente, el portugués Cristiano Ronaldo está un escalón más arriba: primero en los clasificatorios europeos y segundo de todo el planeta fútbol con 36 tantos en 47 juegos, es decir, que el “10” argentino ya está a sólo dos “dianas” de alcanzar a CR7.
El insólito líder del ranking de goleadores en Eliminatorias surge de la CONCACAF: se trata del guatemalteco Carlos Ruiz, que acumula 39 goles en 47 partidos, es decir, 5 más que Lionel.
Los números de Messi en Eliminatorias
El argentino acumula 67 partidos en la competencia y forjó su producción goleadora en los ciclos de Sudáfrica 2010 (4 tantos); Brasil 2014 (10), Rusia 2018 (7), Qatar 2022 (7) y Estados Unidos-Canadá-México 2026 (6).
Sus víctimas en Eliminatorias fueron: Bolivia 7, Ecuador 6, Uruguay 5, Chile y Venezuela 4, Colombia y Paraguay 3 y Perú 2. Al único rival al que no pudo anotarle fue a Brasil.
Por otra parte, Messi anotó sus tres goles ante Bolivia con 37 años, 3 meses y 21 días, lo que lo convierte en el quinto goleador más longevo de las Eliminatorias CONMEBOL.
Este ranking lo lidera el peruano Faustino Delgado, quien con 40 años, 2 meses y 22 días le marcó a Colombia en 1961, por lo que este récord será difícil de alcanzar para la “Pulga”, ya que cumplirá esa edad recién después del Mundial 2026.
