He kicked the scoring in their game against Maccabi Haifa in spectacular fashion.
With plenty of space in the box, Messi kicked the ball with the outside of his foot, around the defender and past the goalkeeper.
It was his third Champions League goal of the season and 10th overall.
The PSG superstar trio were all shooting and all got on the scoresheet in the first half.
Kylian Mbappe hit a crisp curling shot into the top corner before Messi set Neymar up to make it a comfortable 3-0.
Messi is now the only player to score 10+ goals and 10+ assists in all competitions among players in Europe’s top 5 leagues this season (10 for both).
