World Cup winner, Latauro Martínez’s wife, saved the day when she caught a mirror a split-second before it toppled onto their toddler son.

Security-cam footage from the family home followed one-year-old, Theo, as he walked towards it in the walk-in wardrobe.

He then began tapping on the glass, which was leaning up against a wall, before pulling it away with his other hand.

She caught the large mirror a split-second before it toppled onto little Theo, and smashed into pieces.

She then leaned it back against the wall and scooped her baby son up in the safety of her arms.

The 28-year-old Argentine wrote: “Theo almost gave me a heart attack.”

Theo turned one on 7 August, as reported by Need To Know.

Martínez wrote at the time: “Happy birthday, our love, our little whirlwind. Thank you for brightening our days together with your sister.

“I only wish for you both to be happy and healthy. We love you so, so much.”

Martínez and Gandolfo – an entrepreneur and fitness trainer – tied the knot at the Renaissance Villa d’Este on the shores of Lake Como, Italy, in May 2023.

He was the season’s top scorer, with 24 goals.

He also won this year’s Copa América with Argentina and was the tournament’s top scorer, scoring five goals.

The striker won the 2022 World Cup with his nation.
