Argentina may have beaten France in last night’s thrilling World Cup Final in Qatar but some incidents that took place after the game are definitely causing a storm online.
One such incident has to be related to the likes of Argentina’s goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez who really shocked so many fans seated in the audience and around the globe with his startling behavior.
He was seen being awarded the honor of the title for Golden Glove Award and instead of graciously accepting it with open arms in front of the crown’s royal Crown Prince, he put up a display that was beyond obnoxious.
The award was granted to him after making the massive penalty save with a David Brent-style dance. And as one can imagine, it just was not appropriate for such a formal occasion.
Martinez was hailed for making the stellar save at penalty and many feel that was definitely a class act in the world of soccer. It definitely assisted the star in triumphing and reaching the top against France. And in the end, it was Argentina who managed to come out on top, gaining the trophy and sending France home without a win.
As it is, Martinez is hailed for being an absolute shot-stopper at Premier League side Aston Villa and his huge save definitely played a role in assisting Argentina to win. This incident took place during extra time and that is what led to the thrilling penalty shootout.
