In the working class Buenos Aires district of La Boca, the death of Diego Maradona has cast a long shadow stretching out from the stadium of Boca Juniors where he played in his youth and returned to in his later years.

Maradona was buried on Thursday amid fanfare and high emotion after his death aged 60 from a heart attack this week, laying to rest one of the world’s greatest soccer stars.“I have seen many people cry who I had never seen cry before,” she said, after taking her 5-year-old son to a makeshift memorial set up at the blue-yellow soccer arena.

“The important thing is what Diego did, bringing us the Cup,” he added. “We must be grateful for that alone.”
