Emiliano Martinez
33-Year-Old
Aston Villa
Premier
Beaten late in huge performance
Martinez had 11 saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Spain.
ANALYSIS
Martinez nearly kept Spain from lifting the World Cup trophy, repeatedly denying their attacks before Ferran Torres finally broke through in extra time. The Aston Villa goalkeeper had been far from this level of production during his previous outings, with the 11 saves against the champions more than doubling his total, going from nine to 20 saves in the entire competition. However, he kept only two clean sheets, both of which came in the initial pair of group-stage games.
