Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has secured their fourth consecutive win in the French Ligue 1 this weekend, defeating Lille 4-0 at the Parc des Princes. The victory was led by a sensational performance from Lionel Messi, who netted four goals to set a new record for the most assists in a single season.

The Argentine forward's display was nothing short of spectacular, as he scored twice in the first half and added two more in the second period. He became only the third player in Ligue 1 history to reach double figures in assists in a season after Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Messi's tally of 10 assists is also a new record in the league, breaking the previous mark of eight set by Djibril Cissé last year. His efforts have been instrumental in PSG's impressive start to the campaign, which has seen them take a commanding lead at the top of the table.

Despite the impressive individual performance, PSG will be aware that they face some tough opponents in the coming weeks. They will need to maintain their form if they want to retain their title challenge against rivals such as Marseille, Lyon and Monaco.

Overall, Messi's four-goal haul in the win over Lille is a testament to his skill and commitment to the team. It shows that even when faced with challenges, he remains focused on delivering his best performance for PSG.
