Raphinha has matched Lionel Messi’s remarkable goalscoring feat after reaching 15 goals in his opening 11 La Liga appearances of the 2026/27 season.
The Barcelona forward achieved the milestone with a brace in the 6-1 victory over Deportivo Alaves, continuing an impressive start to the campaign.
His tally places him alongside Messi’s 2012/13 record of 15 goals at the same stage, while surpassing the Argentine’s 14-goal return in the opening 11 matches of the 2011/12 season.
Only Cristiano Ronaldo has managed a better return, having scored 18 goals in his opening 11 league appearances during the 2014/15 campaign.
