Barcelona vs Juventus, 3-1 (Champions League Final, 2015)
Don Andres loves playing in the Champions League finals. The Spaniard has not scored in a single final he has played but has created one goal in each of 2009, 2011 and 2015 finals.
In 2015, Iniesta was at the heart of the Barcelona midfield as Xavi was set to retire. Starting the game as the captain, he did not disappoint the Barca fans. He assisted Ivan Rakitic for Barcelona’s first goal of the night just 4 minutes after the kick-off.
The Spaniard sneaked into the penalty box to collect Neymar’s pass and Juve’s sturdy defence could not stop him from placing a square pass to Rakitic for a simple goal. Iniesta continued to dominate the game with his precise passing for the rest of the game. The midfielder’s passing accuracy was 89% during the game and he was rightly awarded Man of the Match on the night.
With his match-winning performance against Juventus, Iniesta became the first player to be awarded Man of the Match in the finals of Euros (2012), FIFA World Cup (2010) and Champions League.
