Argentina won the World Cup because of that one moment; Revealed by Angel De Maria
The most beautiful moment of the 2022 edition of the World Cup in Qatar was the Argentine team winning the world title. Lionel Messi, who can undoubtedly be called the legend of the contemporary football world, was able to complete his football career by winning the World Cup.
But De Maria has said that it was a single moment that made Argentina win the World Cup and if they could not overcome that moment, the cup would have gone to France. Di Maria scored a goal and won a penalty to help Argentina beat France in the final.
Mbappe scored two consecutive goals in the space of two minutes to make Argentina close to victory from two goals down in the match. Di Maria then suggested that France would have won the cup had it not been for goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez’s crucial save in a game that went on to be anyone’s way. The actor revealed these things in an interview given to Das.
Di Maria’s comment was in reference to Martinez’s blocking of Kolo Muani’s shot. Di Maria also announced his support for Emiliano in the criticism he faces.
“Kolo Muani’s shot was blocked by Emiliano Martinez which paved the way for us to win the World Cup. But after the match, many people were seen blaming Martinez. Some even mocked him by asking if there was a goalkeeper named Martinez. But after the World Cup, he was voted the best goalkeeper in the world,’ Di Maria said.
At the same time, Di Maria’s club, Juventus, is going through great difficulties. The Italian football authorities had already deducted 15 points from the club for engaging in financial manipulations. With this, the position of Juventus is currently in 10th place in Serie A.
