The key forward in the team's campaign led by Gustavo Costas, experienced an unexpected situation with fans of the Avellaneda team that quickly went viral on social networks.

When he was returning home after the match at the Cilindro, Martínez stopped at a traffic light and rolled down the window of his vehicle to surprise the occupants of a neighboring car: “Long live Racing, man!”.

“No, damn it! I'm going crazy. You're phenomenal, you smashed it”, the driver responded excitedly, while the encounter was recorded live on the player's wife's social media broadcast.

The situation became even more comical when, amid laughter, Maravilla left a phrase that triggered laughter among the fans: “We won by the skin of our teeth, but oh well”.
