Mascherano's intervention in Bendtner was great that he saved Barcelona's career.

Argentina joined the Spanish club in the summer of 2010 by Liverpool for an estimated 22m euros.

At the time, no one understood why Barcelona was spending on it, as there was no chance of usurping the country in the Sergio Busquets base formation.

And in the first six months, Mascherano really looked like a water-free fish at the Cump Nou.

But in March 2011, a single moment of genius in defanzia changed everything and saved his career in Barcelona.

In a quarterfinal match in Champions League against Arsenal, Mascherano performed an extraordinary intervention at the last moment to deny the goal that seemed safe Nicklas Bendtner.

In what was a brilliant moment, with Arsene Wenger kneeling near the reserve bank as a result.
