Hugo Lloris slams Argentina hero

Sports Brief earlier reported that retired French goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has admitted he does not see himself resorting to 'unruly' antics like Argentina's Emiliano Martinez during penalty shootouts.

Lloris came under some intense backlash for failing to make a save during France's 4-2 loss to La Albiceleste during post-match penalties in the 2022 FIFA World Cup final.

Martinez's antics proved pivotal as he made a save from Kingsley Coman while Tchouameni missed the target as Argentina overthrew France as world champions via penalties.
