World Cup in Qatar 2022

When a team wins on penalties, the goalkeeper is always the protagonist. If you win on penalties at the World Cup you already become a hero, if you win the title on penalties you automatically become a legend. Emiliano Martinez, difficult to beat from the penalty spot, left his mark and literally put his hand in Argentina’s triumph, which won the third championship in its history. Legendary ‘Dibu’ who, however, was not very sporty either in the penalty shootout or especially when he received the award for best goalkeeper in the Qatar 2022🇧🇷 Upon delivery, Aston Villa’s number one was the author of a bad gesture.

Argentina v France is the most beautiful World Cup final of all time. A game full of emotions. 3-3 the final result. Argentina passes and closes 2-0 in the first half. France manages to recover and extend the match to extra time. Messi scores again, Mbappé equalizes from the penalty spot in the 118th minute. Martinez overcomes himself in the 120th minute with a shot by Kolo Muani🇧🇷

In the penalty kick, Argentina was the favorite because their goalkeeper is a penalty saver, the opponents know that. Martinez saves alone a penalty, that of Coman, but that’s enough and it goes on. Because Tchouameni is wrong and Argentine shooters are perfect. Between one penalty and another, however, Martinez does not hit. Because he goes to get the ball from the brand and hides it. A bad gesture. Of course it’s a World Cup final, it’s everyone’s dream, but it went wrong. Not bad, because as a result it didn’t matter.

After the match Martinez is praised by his teammates, will also celebrate with the family, gives an interview in which he gets emotional. Then go back to the field. He knows he has to celebrate. He and his teammates must go up to the podium to receive a medal and a cup. But for Martinez there is a surprise, one that perhaps he expected, but which he may not have thought of after all that uproar.

Because FIFA elected him the best goalkeeper in Qatar 2022, to the detriment of Livakovic and Bounou. Martinez takes the podium to collect his award, which technically it’s the ‘golden glove’🇧🇷 An award received by great goalkeepers in all these years. However, when the Aston Villa goalkeeper receives him, he is the author of an ugly and, above all, very vulgar gesture, which is not difficult to understand after seeing the images.

A gesture made around the world that immediately drew boos from the fans in the stadium and which was later commented on, with fierce criticism, in all corners of the world. Not a good way to celebrate that of Emiliano Martinez, who will probably have quickly regretted it after a while.
