It's impossible to think of another sportsperson whose death would provoke a similar global response, one befitting a soccer player, a rock star and a religious leader rolled into one. Maradona was revered as a genius who graced what is by far the world's most popular sport. He was also deeply human, a flawed hero who stands in contrast to the athletes who often define the modern game.
The British tactics relied on"force" and"physical power," but a new Latin-influenced style soon emerged in the country that was"individualistic, undisciplined,""agile and skillful," the Argentine anthropologist Eduardo P. Archetti wrote in a 2001 paper.The spirit of the Argentine game revolved around the idea of the"pibe" — a scruffy street kid playing on the cramped, unpaved ground among shantytown buildings, Archetti said.
In that moment, with his lonely raid into the English ranks, Maradona was once again that street urchin, encapsulating the Argentine fantasy of a plucky, oppressed underdog getting revenge against a former colonial power, Archetti said.
"This is a great city but I can hardly breathe," he said at the time."I want to be free to walk around. I'm a lad like any other."
True... just about everyone worldwide knew the greatness of this man... the reaction is reminiscent of the one when Mohamed Ali died!
I saw Pelé play. The best of all time...
Another celebrity?! That's the nth celebrity who's died in 2020. Daily mass, daily rosary for their eternal souls. Life is truly short. God bless, Rev. 21:4
The Gifted One who shook the Devil’s hand & the World, in a Perplexed state, to this day...thinks, it was God’s Hand. RIP
Soccer ball 💀 yikes 😫👎
'CHANGE' always represents the end of something. Right now the entire planet is witnessing Global, social, and economic changes, and I'm sure there are many other changes taking place simultaneously in individuals lives too! I think it's a necessary process to grieve 'WHAT WAS'.
Americans think they are more important than the rest of the world. This is why they feign shock .
OMG, there have 250.000 people died from COVID-19 and the death of this super unimportant person - as tragic as it may be - fills all the news outlets. 😡
He was without peer, the greatest player that will ever live.

Its a football, 20 of the 22 players on the pitch only use their feet.
Football.
To call a game, in which you 99,9% of the time don't play with your feet is just plain dumb. Therefore 'kick a football'.

Cocaine dealers are profoundly saddened
Whoever says that Maradona was the greatest player ever to kick a soccer ball never watched Pele’ play.

Many sport& non sport fans across USA wonder why the social media went viral& the news became polarized for the death of Maradona, more than a loss of US president. The glory& greatness of Diego Maradona is unmatched, this icon has transcended football and then transcended sport.

Voter fraud has clearly played a major part winning the US election. This was democrats devious plan all along. Coup. Democracy has ended in America. It is now controlled by globalist crooks. MSM propaganda are the real virus. ID and full transparency are essential for voting.

Fans threw rocks and bottles at police, and they responded with tear gas and rubber bullets. Sounds like any US city after a team wins a championship.
