In this situation, many a footballer would do the sensible thing and play the ball out wide to a teammate... but Iniesta sets about trying to weave his way through the forest of Espanyol players before him.
Slightly off balance to begin with, the Spaniard evades the first challenge before slaloming around the second. With a third imminent, he pokes the ball through the legs of his opponent to Messi.
The Argentine instantly chalks up a nutmeg of his own, swiftly following this by nudging the ball away from the outstretched leg of another Espanyol player. Zigzagging between two more opponents, he eventually creates space for a shot.
By our count, that's just 12 touches from the pair before Messi is able to get his shot in on goal.
Now sit back and enjoy...
