The Spanish word "remontada" is becoming infamous around the world because of the extraordinary against-the-odds fightbacks (the literal translation) that Real Madrid consistently produce in the UEFA Champions League. But while the rulers of Europe will be hoping to conjure up one of those logic-defying comebacks against Arsenal at the Bernabéu on Wednesday, there's a lower-profile -- but equally worthy of appreciation -- remontada happening at the heart of Barcelona's brilliant back line.
The man in focus is Iñigo Martínez. Without any shadow of doubt, he is the team leader at the Spanish champions-elect, the boss of that back four, the man who marshals their exhilarating, ridiculously high-wire, advanced offside line.
