The Argentine team achieved the long-awaited World Cup and one of the main figures was Emiliano Martínez. The goalkeeper appeared in the most difficult moments and saved a penalty in the definition from 12 steps against France. Now, it is revealed what the 'Dibu' did to immortalize the title obtained in the Middle East.

The celebrations still continue in Argentina for what was achieved a couple of days ago in Qatar. One of the most excited players was Martínez, who decided to tattoo the cup on his left leg, the same one that saved the Albiceleste against France, in the last minute of added time (the French goal would have meant catastrophe for the country).

After losing the World Cup final against Messi, the news from Lionel that angered Mbappe

Martínez was key in all instances. Against Australia, he saved a one-on-one at the last minute, which would have caused the definition to be extended until overtime. Against the Netherlands he saved two penalties and against France he drowned out Kolo Muani's goal cry, at minute 123. In addition, from 12 steps he stopped Coman's collection and forced Aurélien Tchouaméni's error.

His celebrations provoked criticism from Europe:

While in Argentina the 'Dibu' is a hero, from Europe they questioned his celebrations. First, they criticized the fact that the best goalkeeper trophy was placed in his genital area. In addition, they went against the goalkeeper for using a doll with the face of Kylian Mbappé, while the Argentine team toured the streets of Buenos Aires.
