Emiliano Martinez Repeats Controversial Trophy Celebration
News summary

Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez has sparked controversy once again by repeating his infamous World Cup celebration during a recent match against Chile. After helping Argentina secure a 3-0 victory in a World Cup qualifier, Martinez humorously mimicked his lewd gesture from the 2022 final, where he held the Golden Glove trophy to his groin, a moment that drew mixed reactions last year. Despite admitting he regretted the original gesture, he stated that it was intended as a joke among teammates and a response to being booed by French fans. This incident follows his brief restraint during the Copa America celebrations but highlights his penchant for provocative antics. While Martinez has faced scrutiny, including potential disciplinary actions from FIFA, he continues to embrace his role as a 'pantomime villain' in football. The match also marked an emotional farewell for teammate Angel di Maria, who retired from international football after Argentina's Copa America triumph.
