Diego Maradona

Vea a un Diego Maradona de 20 años proporcionar una impresionante ayuda

No era ningún secreto dentro de Argentina que Diego Maradona era un talento precoz desde una edad temprana. Apareciendo contra Hungría a los 16 años, Maradona se convirtió en el internacional más joven del país.

Cuando la Copa del Mundo de 1978 llegó a Argentina, la llamada para incluirlo en el equipo, que ahora tenía sólo 17 años, fue rotunda. Pero el entrenador argentino César Luis Menotti se abstuvo, creyendo que las presiones de un Mundial en su país serían demasiado para el adolescente.

Diego Maradona Will End His 22-Year US Travel Ban By Speaking At Harvard

The Naples Trinity Combine To Sink Milan

In the opening episode of the newest, most extravagant HBO television series, The Young Pope, the decidedly Neapolitan Cardinal Angelo Voiello, anticipating his upcoming meeting with the Holy See, lays out on a desk his three smartphones.

As one might expect, some artsy people are unhappy about Maradona taking over an opera landmark, because he's, you know, Maradona. Diego Maradona's life seems more suited for a rave in an abandoned warehouse than an opera, but whatever.

Football Should Steal This One Rule From Major League Baseball

In addition to bribery, money laundering and papering over racism, FIFA — football’s very own basket of deplorables — occasionally rolls out a rule change or two. During the weekend’s World Club Cup final, for example, Alvaro Morata became football’s first ever “fourth substitute” as Real Madrid took advantage of a trial rule-change allowing an additional substitution during extra time.

Let’s Make A New Year’s Resolution To Work Out Like Diego Maradona

According to the University of Bristol, 88 percent of people who set a New Year’s resolution ultimately fail. Worryingly, that total comes despite the fact that 52 percent of people set out with the utmost confidence in their ability to achieve their goal. This should tell you a lot about the human race.

Ronaldinho Was As Happy As Ever At The Pope's Charity Match

I love Dinho. You love Dinho. We love Dinho. Everybody loves Dinho. Dinho is good and cool. Dinho is fun. I wish I was as happy about anything as Dinho seems to be about everything.

Dinho played in a charity match for Pope Francis and had lots of fun.

Dinho played keepy-uppy with Francesco Totti and Diego Maradona and had more fun than you or I could even fathom.
