Lionel Messi has provided 35 assists in World Cup and World Cup qualifying matches combined, making him the all-time leader in this category. The Argentine maestro’s vision and passing range have been instrumental in his country’s success on the global stage.
At the 2022 Qatar World Cup, Messi delivered several key assists alongside his goals, playing a pivotal role in Argentina’s triumph. His ability to unlock defenses with a single pass has been a hallmark of his career, and he will look to add to his tally at the 2026 tournament in North America.
