Andres Iniesta's First Touch Is A Thing Of Beauty

Andres Iniesta has still got it. Don't you worry.

The Vissel Kobe midfielder (still sounds a bit weird) produced a filthy, filthy touch during a game in the J-League.

He brilliantly plucked the ball out of the air with his right foot, before caressing the ball with another delightful touch, eventually laying off his teammate.

Beautiful.

Anyway, he recorded his first win with his new team following last weeks miserable debut.

The midfielder entered the fray as a second-half substitute, and was introduced to a raucous crowd with fans waving Spain flags.

However, Iniesta's first game for Vissel Kobe ended in defeat as they lost 3-0 at home to Shonan Bellmare. Ouch.

While it's another game for the Japaneses outfit, it's going to take some time before people get used to seeing Iniesta in a Vissel Kobe shirt.

Iniesta wasn't the only player who made his J-League bow last weekend.

Fernando Torres also came off the bench to make his debut for Sagan Tosu. And just like his former international colleague, he suffered defeat losing 1-0 at home to Vegalta Sendai.

All the best in Japan, lads.
