Mbappe gave a chilling look but Martinez warmed the hearts of others in the audience, such as Lionel Messi and Arsene Wenger, with a tribute to his hard-working parents.
The Aston Villa stopper beat Morocco and Sevilla keeper Yassine Bounou and Belgium’s Real Madrid No1 Thibaut Courtois to the prize.
Martinez stunningly foiled Mbappe’s France strike-partner Randal Kolo Muani near the end of extra time in a classic World Cup final.
