Bayern Munich midfielder Javi Martinez praises Spanish teammate Andres Iniesta.

Bayern Munich midfielder Javi Martinez has branded Spain teammate Andres Iniesta "out of this world".

Iniesta, 29, once more put in a man-of-the-match in Spain's 2-1 win over Uruguay on Sunday, with Martinez describing the Barcelona midfielder as "amazing".

"Andres is out of this world. What he did against Uruguay was amazing. Quite often it seems like he's playing against kids. He gets around his opponents with such ease," he told Marca.

"I was telling [Victor] Valdes the other day, I would love to be Iniesta for just one game. He is unbelievable. When Iniesta is on the other team to you, you don't enjoy it.

"He makes you suffer a lot and, if you give him an inch, he can do just about anything. But, when you play by his side, you can enjoy watching him do amazing things while making them look so easy."

Spain face Tahiti in their next Confederations Cup clash on Thursday.
