In the 40th minute of tonight’s European Championships qualifier between Spain and Malta, former Manchester City ace Jesus Navas sparked a lovely move for ‘La Furia Roja’.
The winger’s picked out Gerard Moreno and the forward played the ball into Villarreal teammate Santi Cazorla with a perfectly-weighted first-time pass.
Take a look at the playmaker’s heartwarming goal below:
Gol de Santi Cazorla con la Selección 4 años después. Sufrió 8 operaciones de tobillo, estuvo a punto de que le ampuntaran el pie y el médico le dijo que estuviera contento si lograba caminar con su hija en el césped de casa. pic.twitter.com/ksIRBfaJvs

The Ex-Arsenal man controlled the ball before sliding it into the bottom corner. Goal report that the strike was the attacking midfielder’s first for Spain in four years and two days.
What a beautiful moment for Cazorla considering the battles he’s faced to get back on to the pitch over the last couple of years.
