Iniesta, scorer of the goal that won Spain the 2010 World Cup, announces his retirement after a 22-year career
Andrés Iniesta, who scored Spain’s World Cup-winning goal in 2010 and was one of the key players who made Barcelona’s tiki-taka thrive for so long, announced his retirement from soccer on Tuesday.
The 40-year-old Iniesta ended a 22-year career that also included two European Championship titles and four Champions League trophies.
“I never expected that this day would come, I never imagined it,” an emotional Iniesta said at a ceremony in Barcelona. “But all the tears from the last few days are tears of emotion, or pride, they are not tears of sadness. They are tears of this kid who had the dream of being a soccer player and who succeeded after a lot of hard work, effort and sacrifice.”
Since leaving Barcelona in 2018, he had been playing with Vissel Kobe in Japan, and for the last year with club Emirates in the UAE Pro League.
Iniesta made his first-team debut with Barcelona in 2002, and appeared 674 times.
