Watch the highlights of the victory:
FIFA Interviews Maradona… and cannot stop asking about Brazil!
FIFA published the second part of the interview with Diego Maradona, Argentina’s god and coach. The funny part is, FIFA would not stop asking questions about Brazil. Ok, Brazil plays Argentina on September 5th and if Brazil wins, Seleção already qualifies for the World Cup while Argentina would be in serious trouble (could this cost [...]
Riquelme quits Argentina.
Yep. He’s out. Finished. Juan Román Riquelme announced today he will no longer play for Argentina due to differences with Maradona. He says him and Maradona have different ways of thinking and acting and that he will not be participating in next year’s World Cup. Too bad for Maradona, who will be losing a great [...]
Maradona is a Grandpa.
While Bruno posts on great and relevant content, I post on the news that will change your life forever (not). But hey, the post on Kaká’s baby brings a lot of people to the blog… Anywho… Sergio Agüero and Giannina Maradona are proud parents of Maradona’s grandson. Little pressure on the small fella huh? The [...]
Today’s Shorties: Hiddink, Maradona, La Furia and more.
A lot of good stuff happened today.
Guus Hiddink was announced as Chelsea’s manager. Well done Blues, the fella is a jolly good manager. And yes, almost forgot: he is still Russia’s manager, as well.
Argentina won the friendly against France, 2×0. Maradona keeps the victory coming, he has not yet lost a single match while [...]
Already? Maradona could resign.
From Reuters.
Diego Maradona, appointed Argentina coach last week, could quit if he does not get his way over his choice of assistant, Argentine media said on Wednesday.
Maradona, one of soccer’s greatest players and one of its most volatile, has reportedly run into a deadlock with Argentina Football Association (AFA) president Julio Grondona over his choice [...]
Read. Maradona and the Scotland friendly.
Chick Young’s post on the friendly between Maradona — ops sorry — Argentina and Scotland on November 19th is a nice read. I have to say I especially like this part:
“Not that [ Maradona ] was the greatest that ever breathed. That was Pele and if you don’t accept that don’t even try to enter [...]
Official: Maradona is Argentina’s new coach
Yep. Diego Armando Maradona is, officially, Argentina’s new boss. One of the best all time players will have to work hard to bring Argentina up on the World Cup Qualifiers. Dieguito was smart though: his coordinator is Carlos Bilardo, who gave Argentina the 1986 World Cup title.
Maybe training sessions will now include “Hand of God” [...]
What if Maradona becomes Argentina’s new coach?
Can you imagine? That would be really interesting. Not really good for Argentina but interesting nontheless. Today there was an almost confirmation that Maradona will be the hermanos’ boss. It’s seems like the AFA did not even consider another man for the job and Maradona believes he is quite ready to take on the burden [...]
Maradona, old guy same tricks.
The guys is old, fat but still has the moves and the cheating skills of the old times. (Thanks Matt – the Aussie one, not the Canadian figure skater.)
