Andres Iniesta is a legendary midfielder who is probably playing his last World Cup. Being the best playmaker in the world at present, he still has got a good pace, terrific passing abilities and the dribbling skills to run at defenders.

Having represented Spain in 129 matches and scoring 13 goals, Iniesta will forever be remembered by the Spanish fans for scoring the winning goal at the 2010 FIFA World Cup which secured Spain their maiden World Cup title.

Iniesta has performed exceedingly well in the first two matches against Portugal and Iran at the 2018 FIFA World Cup. His attacking instinct and a quick pass to Diego Costa led to Spain breaking the deadlock against Iran and winning the game against the stubborn Iranian defence 1-0.

Since Iniesta is the creator of many attacks for Spain, Morocco will have to be careful against Iniesta and should look to close him down quickly.
