The father of the goalkeeper of the Argentina national team, Emiliano Martinez, spoke about his son's psychological tricks during the post-match penalty shootout in the 2022 World Cup final against the French national team.
"Emiliano threw the ball to the right and the player shot into the right corner. He threw the ball to the left and the opponent aimed there. I don't know how it works, but it's a distraction. He said to Aurelien Chuamena, “Are you excited? You're only 20 years old haha,” Beto Martinez was quoted as saying by TyC Sports.
We will remind that in the series of post-match penalties, the Argentines defeated the French national team 4:2. Martinez parried Kingsley Coman's shot, and Chuameni missed the target.
