Alexia, third highest goalcorer in FC Barcelona history

Blaugrana captain finishes fourth goal in El Clàsico at Valdebebas, passing the 198 competitive goals scored by Luis Suárez, with only Messi and César ahead

Alexia Putellas has done it again. She's now in the top three for all-time top goalscorers for FC Barcelona after scoring the fourth goal in El Clásico at Valdebebas, smartly lifting the ball over the keeper and the defence. The women's captain has now passed Luis Suárez, having equalled his total of 198 goals after scoring against Eibar. She now has 199 goals, and is in outright third. Her next challenge? To pass the 200 goal mark.

Record breaker

She scored her first Barça goal in 2012/13, on the day of her debut. Goal 25 came in the Copa de la Reina final of 2014 in Ceuta, number 50 away to Oviedo in 2015/16, number 75 in 2017/18 at Santa Teresa, and the magic 100 against Madrid CFF in April 2019.

125 was at home to Rayo Vallecano in 2021, the 150th early in 2021/22 at Villarreal, and 175 at Camp Nou in the famous Champions League game with Wolfsburg. Her 182th goal that overtook Jenni Hermoso to make her the women's team's highest ever scorer was netted at Atlético Madrid last season.

Chasing César

Her next challenge is to catch César Rodríguez, the second highest goalscorer in Barça history with 232, and as a 30-year-old with a contract until 2026, she has every chance of achieving exactly that.

But getting anywhere near the 672 goals that Leo Messi scored is a tad more difficult. Not just for her, but anyone!
