The Argentine team led by Lionel Scaloni became champion of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, beating Kylian Mbappé’s France on penalties after 3-3 in 120 minutes.
One of the protagonists of that definition was the great goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez, who, in addition to standing out throughout the entire championship, also excelled later for his own show at the festivities.
In this context, the image of Emiliano Martínez with a doll of Kylian Mbappé in the celebration went viral. And faced with this, a Chilean soccer player with an inconsequential career, questioned the figure of La Scaloneta.
“If I were a goalkeeper, I’m not going to walk with a little baby with the face of a guy who scored four goals out of four in my goal, I don’t show up or hold him in my arms,” he said.
“Is he world champion? What does it have to do with it? He nailed me four times! He kicked him on goal four times and scored four goals,” added Pinilla, who watched the World Cup on television since his team failed to qualify.
Due to these statements, which were reproduced in Argentina, Argentine fans plummeted against the former La Roja striker.
