Maradona Died - According to Argentina Paper CLARIN

Yeah, it looks like it's filtering through all the mainstream media so I'm guessing it must be true.

Sad day in football.
 
I know he had been ill for some time in Argentina. I think, like a few other geniuses of the game never really came to terms with no longer playing the game.

RIP.
 
Yes sad irony with Best. Both unbelievable football greats who both lived unhealthy lifestyles in their later lives and paid for it with their premature deaths. A genius. Was lucky to see him play for Argentina at Wembley in the early 80s. Shone like a beacon on the pitch.
 
Although like thousands of others, I never forgave him for 1986 it is still very sad news, condolences to his family.
RIP Diego.
 
If only he never handled that ball for the first goal ! Otherwise nobody would have stopped talking about his second . It was mind blowing
 
I remember at the world cup when he was all bloated and clearly not well, when the camera panned to him he was making v signs at the opposing fans or something and lineker was very sniffy about it. Not me. I'd much rather see some genius nutcase flailing around than the santised bull**** that FIFA present to the world.
Give me maradona, cruyff and cantona over Pele and Messi any day of the week. A joy to watch and always entertaining.
