Emiliano Martinez
Emiliano Martinez poked fun at Kylian Mbappe once more, this time while Argentina celebrated their victory in the trophy parade. He was standing with Lionel Messi, holding up a baby doll with Mbappe’s face. This made the situation even more awkward.
The tension between Martinez and Kylian Mbappé had been brewing before the World Cup. Mbappé commented that countries hailing from Europe had an edge in the tournament due to the higher level of football played in the continent compared to other regions.
The Argentina players celebrated in the dressing room after their victory by dancing and singing together, leaving space for goalkeeper Martinez to jokingly proclaims, “For Mbappe who is dead!” Martinez delivered a critical stop right on the goal line to take the match to a shootout, then made an extraordinary stop to help Argentina defeat France 4-2 in the penalty shootout.

Here is how fans are reacting on Twitter:
Emi Martinez is an unstoppable force who has earned 26 caps for Argentina. He has achieved great success in those caps, winning both the Copa America and the World Cup and being awarded the Golden Glove during both tournaments. His intimidating style of play is not to be underestimated. He will do anything to gain an edge over the opposition – particularly during penalty shootouts. His attitude is so fierce that it would not be out of his character to go as far as to take the Pope’s pants off if he thought it would give him an edge. His dedication and passion for the game make him a formidable opponent.
In summary, Martinez is a standout player. He is likely the best at what he does. Therefore, we should celebrate his accomplishments more than anything else after the 2022 World Cup. While Lionel Messi is undeniably great, his status as the greatest of all time was already established. But all this didn’t stop the fans from calling out Martinez’s actions. There were some pretty harsh and funny comments.
