Xavi Hernández

Yes,Xavi made this kind of trick against Madrid when he scores the first goal...

With the Madrid goal, Xavi made the best of a pass that was a bit behind him and hit him in the calf. That was more of a save. This, on the other hand, was planned. You can see him check *THREE* times to his left as he is making his run, to see what kind of support he has there. He probably could have finished it himself, but he had already planned his move.

Prime or no prime, Xavi is almost 32 and is still fighting for best player awards every year, that's phenomenal and almost unheard of in a time where the sport is more physically demanding ever. I doubt even Messi or Iniesta will be this great and consistent when they're 32.

Xavi's fitness is remarkable. We thought that Cesc and Thiago had been brought to preserve Xavi, but on the contrary he has played more than any other midfielder so far with no signs of fatigue and actually seems fresher than all of them. His fitness is amazing.

Considering he chillaxed until Ronaldinho, Deco and Davids came, that saved his legs bit longer than normal...

though I can't explain his chubby tummy...

That touch of his that led to Sanchez's second: sublime would be an understatement!

Everything Xavi does is intentional. Even if it's unintentional. Scarface of football.
