Prior to the penalty specialist making TWO crucial stops in the shootout to lead Argentina to victory, Emiliano Martinez makes a HUGE last-second miraculous save to stop Randal Kolo Muani and keep Argentina in the World Cup final.
The France winger had a chance to seal what would have been the greatest World Cup comeback in history by scoring the game-winning goal in a thrilling contest.
The Aston Villa goalkeeper, though, stood up and produced the crucial save to force a penalty shootout in the most stressful of finals.
Argentina thought they had the match in hand when they led 2-0 in regulation and again when Lionel Messi gave them the lead of 3-2 in extra time. However, Kylian Mbappe tied the score at 3-3 from the penalty spot, and Argentina would have been sent home empty-handed if it weren’t for Martinez.

The Save

Ibrahima Konate, a Liverpool defender, blasted a hopeful ball forward as extra time was coming to a finish, and somehow Kolo Muani was able to get a piece of it. The forward for Eintracht Frankfurt was given the chance of a lifetime to enter the annals of soccer, and he took it by hitting the ball accurately in the bottom corner. Martinez charged toward Kolo Muani and extended a leg to stop his team’s loss although no one in the stadium was able to see him do so.

Argentina’s hopes of winning the World Cup were preserved by the save, which also forced penalties in the championship match. Martinez has a reputation for stopping his opponents in shootouts and dodging Kingsley Coman to give his team the lead. With Gonzalo Montiel scoring the game-winning penalty kick, Argentina did not let its advantage in the shootout slip.
