Isco has been splendid form since the start of the season, controlling the midfield for Real Madrid and last night Isco played an important role in Spains impressive 3-0 victory over Italy at the Bernabeu, scoring two beautiful goals.

Apart from his sublime free kick and long range shot, Isco became viral on social media for another piece of skill in the match.

The Real Madrid midfielder embarrassed Marco Verratti with a wonderful nutmeg which was replayed on social media over and over again.

Watch it here:

Italy and PSG star Marco Verrati had a torrid time playing against Isco, he was outplayed and outclassed and later admitted to Spanish media that he suffered a lot against Isco. "I was taken aback by his performance. Not even [Lionel] Messi has come close to that level. When I saw his nutmeg, I felt like standing up and applauding too."

The Italian manager also praised Isco after the game "I felt like standing up and applauding Isco."

Isco was withdrawn to a huge standing ovation at the Bernabeu.
