Andres Iniesta has been celebrating the anniversary of his legendary goal against Chelsea in the Champions League by getting on the phone and calling some ‘children of the Iniestazo.’

He shared a video of the call on Twitter with a post: “To celebrate the anniversary of a very special goal, I have called some friends to share an unforgettable and very familiar moment ... “
