In the quarter-finals of the Copa America, Martinez saved two penalties in the penalty shoot-out to help Argentina get through the danger.
Argentina had a tough campaign, and after Lisandro opened the scoring opener, De Paul handballed a penalty in the box, but Valencia's spot-kick hit the post. In the final moments of the game, Kevin Rodriguez scored with a stoppage-time header to send the game to penalties.
Messi, who was the first to come on in the penalty shoot-out, deceived the goalkeeper with a spoon-shot from the spot-kick, but it hit the crossbar. In such a passive situation, Martinez blocked Mena and Alan Minda penalties in succession.
For the national team, Martinez faced 24 penalties and was only scored 12 goals by his opponents, Martinez blocked 9 goals, and his opponents missed 2 times and hit the post once.
Meanwhile, Martinez has won all four penalty shoot-outs for his country, including the 2021 Copa America against Colombia, the 2022 World Cup against the Netherlands and France, and the Copa America against Ecuador.
In the penalty shootout, Argentina had a record of only 12 wins and 6 losses, and the Copa America was 5 wins and 5 losses. However, the appearance of Martinez allowed Argentina to maintain a 100% win rate in the penalty shootout.
