Barcelona and Spain midfielder Andres Iniesta returned to training on Tuesday for the first time since injuring his hamstring in early September.

Iniesta pulled his hamstring in a Champions League encounter with AC Milan and was sidelined three weeks. He will miss Spain's Euro 2012 qualifiers against Czech Republic and Scotland on Friday and Tuesday, respectively, though.

The 27-year-old is expected to return to Barca's team against Racing after the international break.
