Iniesta is one of the all-time greats to have graced the game of football. His accomplishments are many. In his illustrious career, he has won a World Cup and two back to back Euro Cups with his national side.

He has been instrumental in Spain's recent success in international football producing Man of the Match winning performances in the 2010 World Cup final and the 2012 Euro Cup final.

At the age of 34, Iniesta is still producing moments of magic at the 2018 World Cup. It was his ability to make things happen that created Diego Costa's match-winning goal against Iran.

Against Morocco, he again displayed fine form when he found Isco inside the box with a cut back to create a goalscoring opportunity. Isco took it well, slotting the ball coolly into the goal to give Iniesta his first assist in 2018 edition of the tournament.

Now, once again his form can be the difference for the Spanish side that is up against a ruthless Russian side that has already scored 8 goals in the tournament and will try to keep the momentum going on the Home soil.
