After beating Burgos, the new world and historical record that Dibu Martínez wants

Last Thursday against Paraguay for the third date of the South American Qualifiers towards the 2026 World Cup, Argentina won 1-0 and Emiliano “Dibu” Martínez obtained the undefeated goal, passing the great record of Germán “Mono” Burgos as the Albiceleste goalkeeper to have the most minutes without conceding a goal. However, now the Aston Villa player is going for another brand.

Dibu Martínez was one of the players who managed to transfer his great personal moment to the Argentine National Team, which is why he became one of the heroes of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, since he had great performances with enormous saves, such as the by Kolo Muani about the end of the game, in addition to all the penalties he managed to cover.

So far this year, Dibu Martínez has displayed all his performance and skill in goal, since in the Argentine National Team he has had seven consecutive games with an undefeated goal, since after being World Champion in Qatar 2022, the albiceleste won four friendlies: 2-0 to Panama, 7-0 to Curacao, 2-0 to Australia and 2-0 to Indonesia. Then, in the South American Qualifiers, they beat Ecuador 1-0, Bolivia 3-0 and Paraguay 1-0.

The record for which Dibu Martínez is going to break in 2024

Although it seems like a fairly distant figure, the reality is that they are only separated from the historic Italian goalkeeper Dino Zoff by a difference of 520 minutes, which can be translated as two complete games and ¾ of another. In this way, if Draw wants to achieve that record, it will have to maintain an undefeated record against Brazil and Uruguay on the FIFA Date in November and could only reach the record on the first FIFA Date in 2024. This is the goalkeeper who spent the longest time without receive a goal in the entire history of football with 1142 minutes. What will be the exact moment that surpasses the world champion who is also a world champion but 40 years earlier with that number of years of life?
