Anything can happen in football, that's the general terminology. But, some things has happened already and the possibility of it happening again isn't farfetched. We've heard some of these records and there are some we probably watched.
It's left to us to give our thoughts on whether it will happen or not. But, I still insist, It might never happen.
I will be sharing three amazing facts on every update.
GOALS IN EVERY MINUTES OF FOOTBALL
Don't be confused, a football match is played for 90 minutes. You wouldn't believe it, two players have scored in every minute. Yes! from the first to the 90th minute. Having 90 goals in football is a great feat. How about scoring in every minute of football? That's incredible!
Cristiano Ronaldo was the first to achieve this. He scored two goals for Real Madrid against Atletico Madrid in 2014. His goal in the seventh minute completed this feat.

Zlantan Ibrahimovic also leveled the record by scoring an amazing goal for Sweeden against Estonia in the same year

Two players have done it already, so, what's the big deal? If that's what you are thinking right now, you are right! But, facts still remain they might be the only players to achieve this forever. Only one player has gotten close, he needs just two goals in the first and second minute. Who? The Barcelona demon, Lionel Messi. Scoring an early goal is quite difficult, don't you think?
UNBEATEN RUN IN EPL
EPL (English Premier League) is one of the competitive leagues in football. The probability of winning the league without being defeated is low, very low. Yet, one team has done it before.
Arsenal Football club won the league in 2004 without being defeated. In fact, they played 49 league games without losing a single one. The unbeaten run ended in old trafford. Manchester United won them by two goals to nil.
Yes! This has happened before. Can it happen again?
Manchester city tried achieving this, but, was stopped at Amfied. Liverpool defeated them by 4 goals to 3. I don't see this Arsenal's record being broken in the next decades.

MOST GOALS IN A CALENDAR YEAR
This is the easiest one I think, scoring goals. We have lots of incredible players with brilliant experience at scoring. But, scoring 90 goals in a calendar year? That's quite much.
Lionel Messi scored 91 goals in a single calendar year (2014). He hasn't gotten close ever since. I believe this record will live for years.
