🚨 Emi Martínez: "They gave the World Cup best player award to Rodri.... but the best player of the World Cup was LEO MESSI." @losedul

🚨 DIBU MARTÍNEZ on the World Cup final: "I WAS COMPLETELY CONVINCED IT WAS MY DAY. You know that feeling when you just know the ball isn’t going in? I think they felt it too. One of the opposing goalkeepers even told me: ‘Good thing we won before penalties.’ "I could see my teammates were RUNNING ON EMPTY. THAT WAS MY MOMENT TO STEP UP.” "I heard the Spain players saying: "We have to win it here, we can't go to penalties," when I walked to my goal, and I heard them say it. They scored right at the start of the second half of extra time, otherwise... "That’s what I didn’t like about this World Cup compared to Qatar. Back then, we had six days between Croatia and France. This time, we had just THREE DAYS, including travel and a shortened training session. "We were drinking mate and joking that maybe if the final had been played at 8 PM, we would have been better. JUST FIVE MORE HOURS TO TAKE A NAP! "WE WERE COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED. ABSOLUTELY FINISHED.”@losedul

🚨💔🇦🇷 DIBU MARTÍNEZ reveals the NIGHTMARE he went through while playing with a FRACTURED FINGER during the World Cup: "On a scale of 1 to 10, my finger affected me 10/10. Until the day before the Algeria game, I was diving with ONE ARM, LIKE A ZOMBIE. "Every time I put my hand down, I saw stars from the pain. I CRIED UNTIL MIDNIGHT BECAUSE MY FINGER WAS SWOLLEN LIKE A SAUSAGE. "If a ball had hit me directly on the fingertip, my entire finger could have exploded. Every time a ball came towards me, I prayed my finger wouldn’t pop out of place. "I SCREAMED IN PAIN EVERY TIME I PUT MY FINGER INSIDE MY GLOVE. I begged them to cut the glove open. "I even had to shower with a plastic bag over my hand, keeping it raised.” @losedul
