Quoted from Mirror, Emiliano Martinez faced tremendous pressure regarding Kylian Mbappe as soon as he arrived in France.

As expected, Lionel Messi officially won his 8th Golden Ball. His teammate Emiliano Martinez was also honored.

Martinez was honored in the category (Yashin Trophy) of the best goalkeeper in the world in the past 12 months, largely thanks to his achievements at the World Cup with Argentina. In the final, the 31-year-old allowed Kylian Mbappe to hit the net four times – three of them in the match before the Argentina goalkeeper was beaten by the PSG star in the penalty shootout.

However, Martinez still emerged as the overall winner because he held up the World Cup title and then mocked Mbappe. During the World Cup parade with Argentina, the former Arsenal star placed Mbappe’s face on a doll.

Martinez received the Yachine Trophy for helping Argentina win the World Cup.

Therefore, when Martinez attended the ceremony in France, some fans booed and chanted “Mbappe” to drown out the Premier League star . That forced the event’s host, Didier Drogba, to signal everyone to be quiet.

The goalkeeper 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 1992 received the award from his father, who snuck behind the stage to share the winning moment with his son.
