Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez admits he's "not proud" of his obnoxious golden glove celebration at the World Cup.

Upon being presented with the award, Argentina keeper Martinez pointed the trophy to France fans from his groin.

He now says: "I'm not proud of it, of course, but it was a bet: my teammates challenged me to do again what I had done in the Copa America if I had won the golden glove.

" It's their fault, my teammates.

"The only thing I thought about was not to cry."
