Zlatan’s historical record and those he accumulates in his career

It is that from his conquest -penalty- the one born in Malmö was awarded a historical mark in Serie A: to be the oldest goalscorer in the Italian competition. Old is the wind and it still blows.

The result extended Rossonero’s winless streak to three games in the Italian League. Roberto Pereyra, Beto and Kingsley Ehizibue were the authors of the goals for Udinese. Defending champions Milan were beaten by Fiorentina and drew with Salernitana in their previous two games, while advancing to the Champions League quarterfinals with a narrow 1-0 aggregate win over Tottenham. The defeat of Stefano Pioli’s team leaves him in fourth position, in danger of losing his place on the way to the next Orejona, while the Bianconeri climbed to eighth place.

After Pereyra’s goal, Ibrahimovic made the momentary equalizer with a penalty that was repeated due to invasion after his first attempt was saved by Marco Silvestri. At 41 years and 166 days old, Zlatan surpassed the previous record for the oldest goalscorer, which belonged to Alessandro Costacurta, who was 41 years and 25 days old. when he scored for the last time in 2007, also with Milan and from 12 steps against Udinese.

After recently returning from knee surgery, the Swede started for the first time since January of last year. In the next one, on Sunday April 2, the Rossonero goes against the leader Napoli. Will Ibra remove his own record?

“I am proud to enter the history of this club, which is a great club with a great history, great players who have done great things”, declared the Swede after the game and after winning yet another personal best.

In Italy he also harvested another record: in January 2020 he scored against Cagliari and reached an incredible milestone, having scored in the highest Italian championship in four different decades. Other? He is the only player who celebrated at least 50 cries of his own for both Inter and Milan, being the only foreigner to have won the top scorer award with two different teams, apart from the same city.

Internationally, Zlatan has a record of celebrations in classics. Yes, since he played in seven different countries, he can boast of having scored in the Dutch Klassiker (Ajax), in the Derby della Madonnina (Inter and Milan), in the Turin Derby (Juventus), in the Spanish Clásico (Barcelona), in the Barcelona derby (vs Espanyol), in the French Classique (PSG), the Manchester derby (with United) and that of Los Angeles and California.

Without being listed in the Champions League, Ibra also has a record that is difficult to match: having scored with six different shirts at Orejona (Ajax, Juventus, Inter, Barcelona, ​​Milan and PSG).

In France he was king of Paris and was the one who scored the most goals in a single tournament (38, in 2015/16) and in a single season, counting all competitions (50, also in 2015/16). In addition, the sequence of nine consecutive games scoring and the fastest hat-trick in history (nine minutes).
