Before winning the World Cup held in Qatar, the Argentine team had a dream Qualifiers towards the competition that took place in the Middle East. However, there was an episode that stopped the hearts of Albiceleste fans and involved Lionel Messi, who was nearly injured by a terrible tackle by a player who is now in a third-tier league.
On September 2, 2021, Argentina visited Venezuela and took a 3-1 victory. The result was anecdotal, but what remained engraved in the fan's retina was the terrible tackle by Luis Adrián Martínez against the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7), who was left lying on the field of play.

The play had to be reviewed by VAR and the 'Vinotinto' defender was sent off. Fortunately for the best player in history, who shone at the World Cup in Qatar, where he scored seven goals and provided three assists, the thrashing did not go any further and he was able to continue playing. While the captain of the Albiceleste was world champion, the author of a tremendous entrance is in a third level league.
What is Luis Adrián Martínez currently doing?
He was signed by the Bolivian Always Ready, where he just added two games in the local tournament and Copa Libertadores. His limited level caused the board to terminate his contract. A few weeks ago he was signed by Al Taee, from Saudi Arabia. In 11 games played in the Saudi league, the defender played just three games.
