Once the fall in Barranquilla was consummated, the no. 1 of the Albiceleste team did not have a good attitude towards a cameraman who approached to film him in the middle of the field.
In addition to being one of the best goalkeepers in the world, Emiliano Martínez is considered a figure who inspires love and hate among his fans and detractors, respectively. On this occasion, “Dibu” “went crazy” after the Argentina national team’s defeat against Colombia by 2-1 in Barranquilla, on the 8th date of the South American Qualifiers.
The recent nominee for the 2024 Ballon d’Or was approached by a cameraman to film his feelings minutes after the match ended. After greeting his Colombian colleague Jhon Durán, the Mar del Plata native reacted in the worst way. He pushed the camera away with a slap, under a defiant look.
Although there were no incidents of any kind between players after the match at the Roberto Meléndez Metropolitan Stadium, the defeat of the Albiceleste team seemed to have a profound effect on the spirit of “Dibu” Martínez, who responded in a way that we are not used to.
