Xavi congratulated Messi on the tied record

Former Barcelona captain Xavi Hernandez congratulated Lionel Messi on a tie in Catalans.

Xavi is a record holder with 767 games for Barça, but last night Messi equaled that record in last night's 4-1 victory over Huesca.

"Congratulations, Leo! It's an honor for me to repeat my record," Xavi wrote on Instagram under a joint photo with Messi.

Lionel Messi has played for Barcelona since 2003. This season, the 33-year-old Argentine has 25 games in La Liga with 21 goals and 7 assists.
