As the big final of UEFA Champions League is awaited with so much interest, everybody talks about it. One of the key players of the game is Iniesta from Barcelona.

Iniesta is the man of the match endings. In 2009 he scored against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the Champions League second leg semi-final and scored the winning goal for Spain at the World Cup. “All I want is to win, and this always happens”.

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.

Is this the real deal or is just a move to relax Manchester’s players and take an even bigger hit?
