Argentina finally won the World Cup again after 36 years.
This was the second-longest wait between two trophies for any national team in FIFA World Cup history.
So, what made 2022 special for the South American country?
Why did Argentina win the 2022 FIFA World Cup?
Here are some of the reasons.
1. Emi Martinez Looking at Argentina's team now, it seems like Emiliano Martinez was the missing link the whole time.
They had always gotten close, reaching 3 finals between 2014 and 2016. And of course, they lost all those games in extra time — two of them on penalties.
Now, imagine they had Dibu back then.
Argentina were always shaky in the goalkeeper department until 2021 when Emi made his international debut.
And then boom!
