Sports News] In the 17th round of the Premier League, Brentford suffered a 1-2
defeat at home against Aston Villa. Notably, during the game, Brentford forward
Neal Maupay had a heated altercation with Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano
Martinez. Following the match, Maupay took the opportunity to tease Martinez
during an interview with the media. He mentioned that it was due to his
accidental injury to Bernd Leno that Martinez got the chance to showcase his
skills and eventually became Argentina’s top goalkeeper, even winning the World
Cup. Maupay suggested that Martinez should be grateful for that opportunity.
Furthermore, he stated, “It’s unfortunate that Leno got injured. I have a
good relationship with him. He is now at Fulham. I have never intended to harm
him.” It remains unknown how Martinez felt upon hearing Maupay’s comments.
Fans may have varying opinions on this matter.
