Emiliano Martinez was booed and almost attacked by the local crowd in the second leg of the Conference League in Lille. In the media in France, Martins was called "Enemy No.

1 of the public," while the nickname "the most hated Argentine in France" apparently did not move too much for the goalkeeper who celebrated on the grass, towards the stands, and in the dressing room. After the game, he was asked about the incident and answered: "I have a bad image of someone who wastes time, and any other goalkeeper would have done exactly what I did. I feel that we are a special group of players and a special coach here. We want to win the Champions League and the World Cup." He then added: "There is a special team and a special coach here. We want to win the Champions League and the World Cup." He then said: "If I don't win, I'm not going to be able to play for my country."
