‘Dibu’ Martínez on the Australian goalkeeper

Goalkeeper Andrew Redmayne… Came off the bench for Australia in the final minute of extra time just for penalty shoot-out… He did this dance on the line every time… And for the critical penalty kick it worked! pic.twitter.com/hUb2g9Mevd

In addition to the dance, in videos that circulate on social networks, the moment in which Redmayne takes the goalkeeper’s bottle of water is also evident Welsh, where he apparently had a note that indicated the payment method for each player from Peru, for which he threw it away.

In an interview with the sports media ESPN, Emiliano Martínez gave his opinion on these events and stated that “these are things that he would not do.”

“It’s his technique and his tactics, he qualified for the World Cup. I have seen that they have criticized him for doing that, for throwing the bottle at Gallese and the truth is that they are techniques of the moment. Today, Australia is in the World Cup. They are things that I would not do, but maybe what I did, there are people who would say that I would not do it. I have nothing with the Australian goalkeeper. He did what he had to do to send his country to the World Cup. For me he did perfectly well,” Emiliano commented.

Andrew Redmayne’s acts were also seen by the IFAB and they made it clear that from now on such movements will be prohibited.

“It is emphasized that the spirit of the rule requires the goalkeeper to position both feet in direct contact with the goal line until the maximum penalty is charged,” the entity said.

This rule has been discussed by sports lovers, there are those who support it and others who affirm that it gives the goalkeeper more disadvantages when faced with a charge from the penalty spot.
