It has been almost 10 days since the World Cup ended. But Emiliano Martinez is right in the discussion. After winning the trophy for the best goalkeeper of the World Cup, his gesture and celebration with a doll of Kylian Mbappe in an open-top bus are the main ones that still keep him alive in the conversation.
The France Football Federation (FFF) expressed its displeasure with Martinez's celebration. Even France's Sports Minister Amelie Odia-Castera expressed outrage. Of course, Martinez cares a little!
He is still on the verge of winning the World Cup. Drunk with the joy of winning the World Cup, this footballer has tattooed the World Cup trophy with three stars on his left leg. The goalkeeper shared that photo on his Instagram story. There he wrote, 'Desire shows the way to success.'
The Argentine goalkeeper also established himself as a specialist in preventing tiebreakers at the World Cup in Qatar. Also, saving Argentina from danger at a special moment, he played a big role in their World Cup victory after 36 years. His last-minute save saved Argentina from danger in the last-16 clash against Australia.
But what he did in the last minute of extra time of the final, may find a place in the football hall of fame. It was his incredible left-footed save that took Argentina to the tiebreaker.
It is believed that this is why Martinez has a tattoo on his left leg. Martinez is not the first to get a tattoo. In this respect he has essentially followed the path of Angel Di Maria. Di Maria was the first Argentinian footballer to get a World Cup trophy tattoo before Martinez. Di Maria scored the second goal of the match in the final.
