Watch World Cup joker Emi Martinez gatecrash Sky Sports interview to kiss Aston Villa scorer Leon Bailey

EMIL MARTINEZ gatecrashed teammate Leon Bailey’s post-match interview with Sky Sports last night to plant a kiss on the Aston Villa goalscorer.

The goalkeeper hit the headlines last month after helping Argentina to World Cup glory in Qatar with crucial saves in their shoot-out victory over France.

Aston Villa’s Emi Martinez was pumped up after the win over Leeds United

He returned to club action earlier this month after being granted time off to return to his homeland and celebrate that success with his international colleagues.

The 30-year-old was back in Villa’s side for the 1-1 draw with Wolves on January 4.

But he returned to winning ways at club level yesterday as they defeated Leeds United 2-1 in the Premier League.

Winger Bailey, 25, neatly finished off a swift counter-attack to give the hosts an early lead at Villa Park.

Emiliano Buendia headed home midway through the second period to double that advantage before Patrick Bamford’s late strike for Leeds set-up a nervy finish.

But Martinez and his pals held on to claim the crucial three points, and the ex-Arsenal stopper’s joy was on full display afterwards.

Bailey and teammate Ashley Young were being interviewed on the pitch live on Sky Sports when the South American marched up behind them.

He grabbed Bailey then planted a smacker right on the goalscorer’s head as they were mid-conversation.

Martinez, who has splashed out £20,000 on a guard dog used by the US Navy Seals to protect his medal and family, caused a furore moments after collecting the Glove Glove award after La Abliceleste’s World Cup triumph by putting the trophy to his crotch and thrusting it forward.

His antics back in Buenos Aires then sparked more controversy after he goaded France’s Kylian Mbappe by holding a baby doll with the star’s face on it during the victory parade.
