FIFA World Cup 2022: Emiliano Martinez, the Argentinean team’s goalkeeper, was once more in the spotlight due to his actions, particularly after the game. While receiving recognition for his record during the FIFA World Cup on the podium, Martinez made a obscene gesture with the Golden Glove in his hand.
Martinez’s lewd reaction takes internet by storm
Martinez earned the Golden Gloves trophy, given to the goalkeeper with the most saves, prior to the trophy presentation. Although Bono of Morocco and Jordan Pickford also scored three goals, Martinez received the honour from FIFA’s Technical Study Group.
Social media is flooded with images and videos of the incident, and many users have criticised the Argentine for acting inappropriately given the circumstances. Martinez held the Golden Glove in front of his crotch in front of some of the top FIFA and Qatar officials. Martinez may have been making a joke, but many analysts, ex-players, and fans felt he should have refrained from doing so.
Martinez speaks after the FIFA World Cup 2022 game
Martinez claimed that Argentina wom the World Cup in Qatar due to his team’s performance following the game. The 30-year-old Martinez prevented Kingsley Coman from scoring in the shootout, giving Argentina a 4-2 victory after the dramatic match finished 3-3 after extra time.
Martinez said, “It was a very complicated match, they came back to equalise in the game but it was our destiny to suffer,” said the Aston Villa keeper. All that I have dreamed of has been achieved. I have no words for it. Was calm during the penalty shoot-out, and everything went as we wanted. I left very young for England. I dedicate this victory to all my family.”
