DTotD: Iniesta gives Guardiola a scare

During Barcelona's 3-1 win over Almeria last weekend, Andres Iniesta got a little wound up and overanxious to clear a ball that was already going out. And when he did clear it, he blasted it right by Pep Guardiola, who has standing a few feet away in his designated area. It's hard to tell if the ball hit Pep from the angles in the clip, but he did try to take cover before turning around to give Iniesta a silly reaction as if to say, "Calm it down, little vampire."

Coincidentally, Iniesta was not in Barca's starting XI or among the substitutes for their second leg against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday. Sure, you could say he was on a yellow card suspension for the match, but he might have also been on punishment for making The Golden Pep flinch and forced to watch the game with a string of garlic around his neck.
