The action from Noevir Stadium in Kobe kicks off at 5 a.m. ET and will be broadcast on ESPN. Streaming is available on the ESPN app and the Reddit Soccer Streams subreddit.
After a tremendously successful spell with MLS side New York City FC, David Villa has decided to make one more stop on his career's world tour. He linked up with Iniesta, who made 674 appearances for Barca but joined Kobe after his contract expired at the Nou Camp, as well as former German international Lukas Podolski, in the J.League. Since joining, Spain's all-time leading international goal-scorer has netted 10 times in 18 games

They'll face off against a Blaugrana side that is poised to be one of the favorites to take home the 2020 Champions League title in Istanbul. While Messi will once again be the marquee attraction, players like goalie Marc-Andre ter Stegen, midfielders Frenkie de Jong and Ivan Rakitic, and new signing Antoine Griezmann will be worth keeping an eye on.

Don't be surprised if Iniesta or Villa throw it back to the glory days when they were winning La Liga and the Champions League and provide an individual moment of brilliance.
