A photo of Andres Iniesta taken at 1am, all alone in a stadium has moved many to tears.
After making his final appearance for Barcelona, he stayed at Camp Nou until the early hours of the morning.
The La Liga champions, Barça, claimed a 1-0 win over Real Sociedad and it was a fitting finale for the 34-year-old, who lifted the trophy for a ninth time.
Addressing supporters on the pitch after the final whistle, Iniesta said he “leaves as a man”, having spent so long playing for the Catalan giants. “I will move on and carry you all in my heart forever,” he said in quotes published on Marca.
“It’s been a wonderful 22 years, full of pride, and it’s been a pleasure to represent this club. I thank you for all the love and respect that you’ve given me since I arrived as a child. I now leave as a man.”
