Emiliano Martinez revelled in Kylian Mbappe's despair during Argentina's celebrations after the World Cup final - less than an hour after comforting the France superstar on the pitch.
Martinez was once again the hero for Lionel Scaloni's side after starring in a tense penalty shootout at the Lusail Stadium. Lionel Messi and Angel Di Maria fired Argentina into the lead before France hit back through Mbappe. Messi restored Argentina's advantage in extra-time, but Mbappe completed a remarkable hat-trick by cooly converting a penalty in the 118th minute.
Mbappe and Messi both scored in the subsequent shootout before Martinez thwarted Kingsley Coman and distracted Aurelien Tchouameni to leave Argentina on the cusp of a historic win. But Martinez made a beeline for Mbappe after Gonzalo Montiel plundered the winning penalty for Argentina.
