Reflecting on the much awaited cup finale, Iniesta claimed that it will be a tough encounter which will match in intensity their meeting with Real Madrid the corresponding year. He advised his teammates to keep their cool in the fixture and brace themselves

"I think it will be very close. I see very well at Athletic. We must be very cool head to make the right decisions quickly. They are going to force and we will be well if we want to take us. "
When quizzed about whether a special goal will come from his boots to mark the occasion, Iniesta mused that he hopes his fellows don’t think that way as it might not plan out that way.
"I hope my colleagues do not trust that the miraculous goal, that's not always out. We must make a good game."
