Argentine Stars Hit Back at Rami’s Criticism of World Cup Goalkeeper Martinez

In the face of Emiliano Martinez’s provocations after Argentina’s triumph at the 2022 Qatar World Cup, Adil Rami had, in Instagram stories, described the Argentine goalkeeper as "the biggest FD* in the world of football. The most hated man." "[...] Kylian Mbappé traumatizes them so much that they celebrate their victory against our prodigy more than their World Cup," the former 2018 world champion had added.

As reported by the newspaper Olé on its Instagram account with the comment: "It continues to hurt in France." This prompted strong reactions from Argentine players. "El Dibu (Martinez’s nickname, editor’s note) best goalkeeper in the world. Go cry elsewhere," comments Angel Di Maria. "Stop crying Rami," writes his teammate Leandro Paredes. "Lol, go away Rami," German Pezzella, also a world champion, let go.
