Champions League’s greatest goalkeeper Casillas showing no signs of hanging up his gloves

The Champions League king is back on centre stage once again and the lights aren't ready to be turned off just yet

There is a reason why Iker Casillas is nicknamed 'San Iker' - which translated from Spanish means 'Saint Iker'.

He is a goalkeeper that has been known to perform miracles during his extraordinary 20-year career and for him to be between the sticks for Porto's Champions League quarter-final against Liverpool is another divine achievement.

At 37 years young, Casillas boasts a list of honours that most players can only dream of - including three Champions League trophies and five La Liga titles with previous club Real Madrid, plus a World Cup and two European Championships for Spain.
