The Argentine team has its sights set on what will be the round of 16 of the World Cup in Qatar, where it will face Australia. In this context, Emiliano Martínez, the Albiceleste goalkeeper, surprised all his teammates by debuting a new look prior to the crucial match against the Oceanics.

Through social networks, the new image of 'Dibu' came to light, who has been a guarantee in the Argentine goal since he assumed the starting role (in 2019). The Aston Villa goalkeeper took the opportunity to paint the country's flag on his hair and thus will leave for the round of 16 match.

'Dibu' was key during the match against Mexico, where he showed confidence under the three sticks. Against Poland, he went unnoticed due to the great pressure exerted by the team led by Lionel Scaloni. Now, Martínez hopes to keep his fence at zero as he did against El Tri and the Europeans.

Scaloni's team to face Australia:

Lionel Scaloni, champion of the Copa América 2021 and Finalissima 2022, has practically defined the team that will face Australia, with the only novelty being Ángel Di María, who would not start due to muscle overload. In his replacement, Leandro Paredes, Papu Gómez or Ángel Correa could go.
