Dibu Martinez is positioned in an important way towards one of the key matches of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. The best goalkeeper of last season according to FIFA, the Argentine goalkeeper is preparing for a new challenge with his national team and will now face Uruguay and Brazil in two games that have a lot of history behind them. Prior to these duels, the Argentine goalkeeper's new look is surprising.
Emiliano Dibu Martínez is one of the pillars of the Argentine team and that is why on Thursday, when Argentina faces Uruguay, he will be one of the most applauded by the public at La Bombonera. For this duel, the goalkeeper prepares in a special way and will wear a new/old look.
Before the match, the Aston Villa goalkeeper visited the AFA hairdresser and had some touch-ups that he showed on social media. Tomorrow, when he takes the field, above his left ear there will be the Argentine flag painted in his hair just as he already wore it during the World Cup in Qatar.
The reason behind Emiliano Martinez's look
The fact is that this daring hairstyle, shaved on the sides with dyed light blue and white, had already been worn in the match against Australia in the round of 16, which resulted in a 2-1 victory for Lionel Scaloni's team. “It was just for this game. We made a bet with (Germán) Pezzella, (Marcos) Acuña and Guido (Rodríguez) and thank God we won it,” he said after that match. Since his arrival to the Argentine team as a starter, Emiliano Martinez has never been defeated by either Uruguay or Brazil. In Argentina, they hope that this is not the first time.
