Argentina's semi-final match-winner Lautaro Martinez said he had "dreamt" of scoring the goal which took his team through to the final at England's expense on Wednesday.
"I dreamt it, I swear. I told Alexis [Mac Allister] that I was going to score. And I said on the bench to Facundo Medina that I was going to come on and score," Martinez said after his heroics off the bench in Atlanta as the reigning champions won the game 2-1.
"When my old man first bought me a pair of boots, I always dreamed of scoring this goal," said an emotional Martinez.
