Emiliano Martínez suffered a goal tonight in the classic with Uruguay by South American Qualifiers which marked the end of his historical record of undefeated fence in the Argentine national team.
Barcelona defender Ronald Araújo defeated the resistance of the Mar del Plata player 41 minutes into the first half of the classic played at the Boca Juniors stadium and the “Dibu” mark was established at 753 minutes.
The world champion in Qatar 2022, chosen as Golden Glove in that competition, had not conceded a goal since the final against France (3-3) in Lusail, on December 18 of last year.
The undefeated goal began in the March friendlies against Panama and Curacao; He extended it in the matches against Australia and Indonesia, in June, and continued in the first four rounds of Qualifiers against Ecuador, Bolivia, Paraguay and Peru.
The Argentine National Team’s record of an undefeated goal was achieved by averaging the victory over Paraguay in River Plate, on October 12.
That day he surpassed the 606 minutes of “Mono” Germán Burgos, former owner of the unbeaten record. He is then followed by Sergio “Chiquito” Romero (576), Américo Tesorieri (553) and Luis Islas (531).
In the run-up to the match with Uruguay, “Dibu” Martínez was recognized for the award for Best Goalkeeper in the World, which he won at the last Ballon d’Or gala, on October 30.
