The goalkeeper’s gesture had made everyone discuss.
Interview with ESPNfor the goalkeeper of Aston Villa andArgentina Emiliano Martinez. Particular focus, obviously, still on the World Cup won with the Albiceleste. The words on that his stand out gesture much contested at the time of receiving the award for best fullback of the tournament.
“It was stupid, but it’s the only thing I’m not proud of doing,” he admitted Emiliano Martinez showing an afterthought for that gesture.
Talking about the victory over France and beyond: “I think Di Maria was the most decisive player in the finals. He did it at the Maracana in the Copa America final, at Wembley he played a great match against Italy and at the World Cup he had an injury or in any case he was a bit bruised, but in any case he played in the final and I will be eternally grateful to Angelito for the way he played in a World Cup final”.
A passage also on Messi’s future: “I told him after the match: ‘I hope it’s not your last World Cup’. It took him a long time to win titles for the national team and now we’ve won three finals in a row, why not continue try to reach others?”.
