Messi made his first-team international debut in August 2005, during a friendly game against Hungary. Messi was sent off just one minute after he entered the field. There are still debates on whether he actually deserved the red card.
On November 2, 2005, Lionel Messi scored his first Champions League goal at the age of 18, against the Greek team Panathinaikos in a 5-0 win at Camp Nou.
On March 10, in El Clasico against Real Madrid, Messi scored his first hat-trick in a 3-3 draw, even though Barcelona had 10 players. Messi became the first player to score a hat-trick in El Clasico, since Ivan Zamorano (for Real Madrid in the 94–95 season).
At the age of 22, Messi won his first Ballon d’Or and FIFA Award for Best Player of the Year, both awards with the largest voting margin in the history of each trophy at that time.
