At the microphone of an Argentine radio, the doorman of Albiceleste explained his controversial gesture during the presentation of the World Cup trophies in Qatar.
This is probably one of the most striking and controversial images of this World Cup. In the euphoria of the presentation of the “Golden Glove” trophy, Emiliano Martinez, the Albiceleste goalkeeper, burst into a funny celebration on the podium, placing the object at his crotch. Since then, the photo has made the rounds of social networks.
This Monday, December 19, the doorman spoke at the microphone of Argentine radio The net. He explained the reasons for his action. “I did it because the French booed me. Arrogance doesn’t work with me,” said Emiliano “Dibu” Martinez.
NO SUPERB?

An outing that may still surprise, when we know that the Lusail stadium, which hosted the World Cup final, had only 5,000 French fans, once morest 50,000 Argentinians.
