Andrés Iniesta talked to reporters about next Saturday's all-or-nothing showdown against Atlético de Madrid. The playmaker sounded an upbeat note and claimed the match would be like a cup final for Barça.

"We are 200% confident we can do it. It's our cup final and it's the first time we've been in this position. We have to win and we know Atlético are a very tough team to beat. 'La Liga' is on the line and we'd have all taken this situation if we'd been offered it. Playing at home should help us keep our nerve. The whole year comes down to these 90 minutes", Iniesta noted, adding: "We have the chance to win it at home, in front of our fans and against the current leaders. If we go about it the right way, we'll win".

The opportunity has the midfielder pumped: "It would be amazing to win it. It would somehow put last year's achievement, when we won the league with 100 points, in the shade. Clinching it on the last day would take the biscuit. This group has never had the chance to win the league at the last gasp".

"I don't like talking about the end of eras. Barça are about more than just the players who are here now. Players come and go, but Barça will always live on", Iniesta added.

Finally, the Spaniard paid tribute to Tata Martino: "It would be great to win it for him and his people because of everything we have been through together. The first year at a club like Barça isn't easy".
