Watch: Kylian Mbappe mimics Emiliano Martinez’s Golden Glove celebration

After amassing his Golden Glove award, Martinez slightly rudely positioned it in his crotch space on the rostrum. In footage going viral, Mbappe has been filmed replicating these exact same antics at PSG’s coaching headquarters.

Martinez’s rationalization for the gesture was that he did it in response to boos from the France supporters.

However, FIFA had launched an announcement on the incident, saying that Argentina breached its code of conduct.

“Potential breaches of articles 11 (Offensive behaviour and violations of the principles of fair play) and 12 (Misconduct of players and officials) of the FIFA Disciplinary Code, as well as of article 44 of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Regulations,” the assertion learn.

Mbappe too, was unfazed by Martinez’s antics, nonetheless, and issued a mature response.

“I talked with him after the match,” Mbappe informed reporters final month.

“I congratulated him. For him it was a life goal. For me too, but I lost, so I have to be a good sport. Celebrations are not my problem, I don’t waste time on such trivial things.”
