Fifa posted new images on Sunday of the 2022 World Cup final between the France team and Argentina in Lusail (Qatar). A video of Randal Kolo Muani's famous missed opportunity at the end of extra time seen from the French sidelines. Guaranteed emotional lift.
The 121st minute of the France-Argentina World Cup final has not finished haunting the Blues. More than two years after the triumph of the Albiceleste, it is impossible to forget this face-to-face lost by Randal Kolo Muani against Emiliano Martinez after an unbearable extension at the Lusail stadium. Everything has been said and written about this fatal duel for the Blues. But we hadn't seen everything yet… This Sunday, Fifa published a video on its World Cup account entitled “When Martinez stops the shooting and the celebrations!”
The emotional elevator for the French replacements
While the action is broadcast on part of the screen with live commentary from English TV, another camera films the French team's sidelines at the same time. In a moment of intense tension, the substitutes burst out from the bench as the former Nantes player, still awaiting a loan to Juve, prepared to fire his shot. But they had barely stood up ready to celebrate the winning goal when they already turned back, disgusted by Emiliano Martinez's save. “What a save,” enthuses the commentator.

-“No wonder the French hate Dibu so much”
These never-before-seen images have sparked numerous comments from all over the world. “Kolo Muani will always be haunted by this action and will never have the same career again,” regrets a user. Another wonders about the fact that nine French players crossed the touchline. “Did they get a card for entering the field?” But it was of course the Argentinians who reacted the most: “Ooolééé”, mocked an Albiceleste fan. “No wonder the French hate Dibu so much,” slips another. At the end of a 3-3 draw then the penalty shootout, Lionel Messi's Argentina won the third World Cup in its history after its triumphs in 1978 and 1986.
