Emiliano Martínez commented on Argentina’s 2-1 win against Mauritania.
Martínez allowed one goal in the match against Mauritania but had a lot to say about the team. Speaking to the media after the match, here is what he had to say:
“It was one of the worst matches that we have played. We have to have a little bit more heart. Thank God we didn’t play the Finalissima. If we played like that, we would lose…
“When we put on the national team jersey, we have to put more. We need more heart. We lacked intensity.
“Before the last World Cup, we were tested against Italy and we showed that we can do it. Now, we don’t know if we have are at a top 10 World class level to compete.
“This serves us to show that we need a bit more blood.
“Yesterday, we lost Panichelli to a torn ACL, maybe today people played with less intensity out of fear of injury or something. But when we put on the Argentina national team jersey, we have to do much better.
