Andres Iniesta had the best season of his career. He played a good football, scored a lot of goals and helped Barcelona to reach the final, to win the League and title in Spain.

“I don’t think that I’ll score in the final. I hope the fans do not expect any of it. Even if it will be an equal score, I don’t want like fans put all their trust in me. I just want to win, not to be the star player. I want to bring the Champions League to Barcelona and to celebrate it with the fans, “was Iniesta’s statement.
