A TV cameraman said Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez «slapped me» after Colombia's 2-1 win in a World Cup qualifying match.

Jhonny Jackson told Colombian media he approached Martínez after the final whistle in Barranquilla on Tuesday as the goalkeeper greeted another player.

Footage he captured shows the World Cup winner who Argentines know as Dibu hitting the camera, which quickly shakes to the ground after the impact. «Out of the blue he slapped me,» Jackson told RCN Deportes on Wednesday. «I felt angry, very angry.

I was working, just like he was. He was playing and I was shooting with my camera.» He also sent a message to Martínez: «Dibu, my brother, how are you?
