We take a look at the top 10 players to have scored the most goals for Argentina, born after 1959.
Claudio Caniggia was a forward minded player, contributing significantly to Argentina's 1990 and 1994 World Cup campaigns.
He scored 16 times in 50 caps for Argentina, and was greatly appreciated by fans despite never really representing a European giant at club level.
Juan Roman Riquelme, known for his elegance and flair, was a joy to watch at both club and international level.
Not only did he enjoy his time whilst representing his nation, scoring 17 times in 51 appearances, but he also spent much of his club career in Argentina, having three separate spells at Boca Juniors before retiring at Argentinos Juniors.
Almost doubling Riquelme's goal tally, next on the list is Benfica's Angel Di Maria with 31 goals.
Di Maria was a key figure in Argentina's 2022 World Cup winning squad, even netting in the historic final against France.
Like Di Maria, Gonzalo Higuain has scored 31 times for his country.
He boats an impressive 0.41 goals per match when representing Argentina, though hasn't played for his nation since the 2018 World Cup where he was unable to find the net.
Undoubtedly one of Argentina's greatest ever players, Diego Maradona narrowly earns a place above Higuain and Di Maria with 32 goals.
While for many, the name Maradona is associated with the 'Hand of God', we mustn't forget the quality that the attacking midfielder possessed, and he showcased this many times at international level.
At just 27 years of age, Lautaro Martinez will certainly be hoping to add to his 32 goals for Argentina.
At club level, the Argentinian has made a name for himself in Italy, making more than 300 appearances for Inter Milan.
While 64 appearances for your country is by no means underwhelming, given the quality that Hernan Crespo possessed, many will be surprised that he didn't make more.
He did, however, manage to find the net 35 times for Argentina, managing a 0.55 goals per game ratio that is only bettered by Gabriel Batistuta and Lionel Messi on this list.
Sergio Aguero, undoubtedly one of the Premier League's greatest ever centre forwards, scored 41 times for the three time World Cup winners.
Perhaps if it wasn't for injuries and health issues later on in his career, his tally may have been higher.
Gabriel Batistuta, argued by many as Argentina's best ever striker, was the nation's leading top scorer before Lionel Messi broke that record.
The number nine netted an incredible 55 goals in 78 games.
It is no surprise to see Lionel Messi's name top the list, scoring an outrageous 112 goals for Argentina.
Doubling Batistuta's tally, it is unlikely that any player will better Messi's goalscoring record for Argentina.
