Martinez dream come true
Argentina v France | Final | FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™
Such drama can be in a football match!
Everyone’s imagination about the World Cup final seems to have succumbed to the drama of this match. For 120 minutes, someone was changing the script of the match without noticing. Sometimes leaning towards Argentina, sometimes towards France. Messi’s penalty and Di Maria’s great goal made the match seem one-sided in the first half, it seemed that Argentina would easily win the World Cup, but the match changed drastically in the second half.
France get a penalty, Kylian Mbappe scores. Soon after, Mbappe broke the hearts of the Argentines and Mbappe equalized for France. Messi is the savior again in extra time. Advised Argentina. But that didn’t last either. Mbappe scored a hat trick in another penalty. The best ever World Cup final went to a tiebreaker at 3–3.
The hero of this episode is Emiliano Martinez. By preventing the penalty, he made Argentina reach the World Cup title after 36 years. It was Martinez who denied Randal Kolo Muani a goal in the very last minute of the game. Calling it the best save of the World Cup might be an understatement.
Martinez repeated that after the game. Argentina never gets anything easy. The World Cup was also held by Argentina after many struggles, ‘We struggled a lot in the match. I have suffered a lot. Two mistakes brought France back to level the game. Thank God. After that I was able to do my job properly. I have been able to do that, which I have dreamed of.
“I couldn’t have fulfilled my World Cup dream any better,” enthused Martinez. During the penalty, I was very calm, kept a cool head and did my job.
