Aston Villa's Emi Martinez was awarded with the Lev Yashin Trophy on Monday evening, at the Ballon d'Or ceremony, but he was booed by the French audience on stage.<\/p>\n

Martinez took the accolade named after the only keeper to win the Ballon d'Or, largely thanks to his World Cup. The Villa star was part of an Argentine side that conquered the world last December. <\/p>\n

And he played a crucial role when he denied Randal Kolo-Muani in the dying seconds of the the clash. However, when the video was showed to the French audience, it was greeted with boos, causing Didier Drogba to demand they show Martinez some respect.<\/p>\n
