Diego Maradona

Diego Maradona (October 30, 1960-November 25, 2020) captivated fans worldwide with a bewitching style of play that was entirely his own. Maradona was a master of attack, brave, fast, and completely unpredictable, juggling the ball effortlessly from one foot to the other as he ran upfield. Dodging and spinning with his low center of gravity, he brushed off countless opponents and always scored with his most powerful weapon, his destructive left foot.
