VIDEO: Aston Villa's Emiliano Martinez given brutally hostile reception by PSG ultras ahead of Champions League clash after Argentina goalkeeper's trolling antics against France

Goalkeeper Martinez was public enemy number one in France after he helped Argentina beat them in the 2022 World Cup final, before taunting Kylian Mbappe in his post-match celebrations. Ahead of Villa's Champions League quarter-final first leg in Paris on Wednesday, the 32-year-old was called a "son of a b*tch", among other insults, as PSG fans laid into the ex-Arsenal stopper.

Martinez played a huge role in downing the French and delivering Argentina their third World Cup triumph more than two years ago and it is clear he is not a popular figure there. For all of his trolling antics and winding the opposition up, his quality cannot be denied when it comes to goalkeeping.

After this first-Leg tie in Paris, Unai Emery's Villa will host the Ligue 1 champions next Tuesday night at Villa Park.
