As it already is habit, several footballers go through the digital space that offers Ibai Flat in his channel of Twitch and Youtube, as Gerard Hammered, that even was in the transmission of the final of Glass America in which Messi finally won a title with his selection, Argentina, after winning to Brazil 1-0.

This time the turn was for Andrés Iniesta, that just happened a 11 July by the program or segment called "Chatting quietly with" that the own Ibai moderates, precisely this date in which they commemorate 11 years of the first and only world-wide livestock by Spain with goal of the manchego.

The 1-0 in front of Holland, marked in the minute 116 to pass of Fábregas, another gone out of the quarry culé, painted the cry contained of all the Spaniards that by years expected a moment like this, in which it detained the time while one of his representatives had in front of the arch to make history.

A T-shirt with message to Jarque, goal of world-wide and a memory imborrable for Iniesta, meant everything for him. "The emotion still follows intact, in any case. I remember it like a normal day, although it was not it. The unforgettable were the moments before going out to the field, when you are in the tunnel, seeing the Glass there at the end... And the arrival to Spain, with all the people celebrating the title. It was apoteósico and spectacular. Win a World-wide seems easy but was historical and will remain as well as always", signalled Andrés.

The played follow intact in his head as it explains it: "When the pass comes me of Cesc listened the silence, as that was only with the balloon. And in my head, was that it went in as it went: it had been a very hard party, very equalised, with occasions for both teams. And when you are touching the penaltis... Thank heaven All finish a lot before, with the celebration, with the T-shirt of Dani. A moment brutal to personal level because it had not had a big year: it was to go back to be born futbolísticamente. To personal level crossed situations very complicated, had a lot of injuries. But everything finish as it finish".

The memory of this moment allowed him speak with property on the title of Messi with Argentina, that ensures "removed him a weight of on". "It is brutal what has been able to live Leo, to win at last something with his selection after losing several finals. It has done a flawless Glass, so much in goals like assistances as by what means for his selection. The number 1, for me".

I hammered, the indicated

When being asked on the future of Gerard like possible president of the Barça does not doubt it: "it Can be what he pretend to be. The Barça, people as I Hammered, Xavi, Puyol, Víctor, has to have they somehow, have to be there. I? Each one has his moment and never know what will happen. It would be wonderful to coincide with them, especially if we won, there is not more secret".
