Emiliano Martínez, Argentina’s goalkeeper at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, has raised eyebrows across the world for his… Exuberant behaviour after picking up a prestigious football award.
Martínez was a crucial part of Argentina’s World Cup campaign, with the South American side winning the tournament in Qatar in a nail-biting penalty shootout against France earlier this morning.

Argentina’s victory over France marks Argentina’s first World Cup win in 36 years, as well as star player Lionel Messi’s first World Cup win.
In terms of other awards given after the game, Messi won the Golden Ball (best overall player) and France’s star Kylian Mbappé won the Golden Boot (top scorer).
