THE MOMENT

Scores his 600th Barcelona goal with a 30-metre free kick against Liverpool

Messi’s second goal in Barcelona’s 3–0 first-leg win was his 600th for the club and later won UEFA.com Goal of the Season. Card #49 captures the free kick from behind the Liverpool wall, making the sporting moment immediately legible. Two independent historical card checklists record a 236-copy base run; the original Topps product page is no longer surfaced, so ICX labels the supply evidence as historical rather than pretending it is a current publisher archive. No clean exact raw completed-sale series was found, so liquidity and valuation remain provisional.
