Iniesta ready for Barca face-off
Barcelona legend Andres Iniesta is looking forward to taking on his former teammates when his Vissel Kobe meets Barcelona this weekend for a friendly, saying Friday the face-off will be “an honour.” The match Saturday in the Japanese city of Kobe will be a reunion of sorts, with Barcelona’s current line-up facing ex-teammates Iniesta, David Villa and Sergi Samper, all now Vissel players. It will be the first time Iniesta has met his former team on the pitch. “We all feel that it is such an honour to play Barca,” Iniesta told reporters through a Japanese translator. “The team, Barcelona, is special... It will be a very important match for us,” he said.
