Gabriel Batistuta says Lionel Messi surpassing his Argentina goal-scoring record annoyed him but told Telefe he is at least "second to an extra-terrestrial."
Barcelona star Messi broke Batistuta's feat of 54 goals for Argentina during last year's Copa America Centenario and the Albiceleste captain has since moved seven goals clear.
On whether he was annoyed to lose his record, Batistuta told the Argentine TV station: "Honestly, not a little but a lot, yes. It was a title that I held. It's not just any old thing.
"You go around the world and you say, 'I'm the top scorer for the Argentina national team.' I liked that.
"But the advantage I have is that I'm second to an extra-terrestrial."
