‘Dibu’ dressed as a hero: Martínez denied the goal to Mexico vs. Argentina with surprising save | VIDEO

The ‘albiceleste’ was saved. ‘Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martínez covered a goal shot by Alexis Vega and kept a clean sheet in Argentina vs. Mexico

The Mexican team looked for the goal in the few opportunities that presented themselves and, in the clearest, a free kick near the area, it was the Aston Villa goalkeeper who denied the possibility to ‘Tata’ Martino.

Alexis Vega’s precise shot went over the side of the wall and with great precision, but Martinez jumped, flew and caught the ball in an instant.

Triumph of Argentina vs. Mexico

The Argentine soccer team, one of the great candidates for the title, recovered from the disappointing debut and maintained its chances of advancing to the World Cup round after beating Mexico 2-0 on Saturday with goals from Lionel Messi and Enzo Fernández.

With the victory in the framework of the second day, Argentina was in second place in Group C with three units along with Saudi Arabia, one point behind the leader Poland and two above its rival Mexico.

“Very complicated to get up because Mexico plays well, has a good coach, handles the ball for you. The first half we played with great intensity and the second, when we calmed down and started to play the ball, we went back to being what we are and the goals fell,” Messi said after the game.
