The 70th appearance is the charm.
Monday's Euro 2016 qualifier between Spain and Macedonia saw Sergio Busquets notch his first-ever international goal for La Furia Roja with a right-footed strike just before the interval that took a generous deflection off Macedonian defender Vance Sikov.
Busquets isn't exactly known for his scoring exploits, but given the way Spain have thrashed numerous opponents over the past five years, it's hard to believe that this is the 26-year-old's only international goal in 70 appearances.
