The West Ham goalkeeper forced a penalty shootout with a great late-extra-time save on Kolo Muani. “And then I did my thing, what I dreamed of. There could not have been a World Cup that I have dreamed of like this one. I have no words”, he confessed emotionally at the end of the meeting.
A little later, ‘Dibu’ Martínez was the protagonist in a new penalty shootout, this time in a World Cup final, against France (2-2, 3-3 after extra time and 4-2 on penalties) and stopping the shot by Kingsley Coman. “It was fate to suffer,” he noted.
“Once again we had it under control. Two sh*t** shots back and we tie the game. Another thing we said, that it was destiny to suffer. We get 3-2. They charge us another penalty. they put us They almost scored two goals for us. Thank God I got that foot out later,” Emiliano Martínez recalled.
“Once again they kicked me three times and scored three goals. I could have stopped the first one too, I threw myself badly but then I did everything right”, analyzed the ’23′ from Argentina, once again vital in the triumph of his team.
At the time of dedications, the goalkeeper pointed “to my family, to my baby.” And he recalled: “I come from a very humble place, I went to England when I was young, very young, and I want to dedicate it to them.”
