1968
A trial is underway at Argentinos Juniors, a small club in Argentina.
Scout Francisco Corneho saw a 6-year-old boy jumping on the ball one by one, scoring goals after goals.
.
Corneho called out to the boy,
- Is your name?
- Maradona.💪
-How old are you?
-4.
.
Can't believe it ..
- Do you have an ID?
- No.
.
After researching, he found out that the boy had really said. Not too late,
he took Argentinos Juniors to the youth team.
1968, October 20.
Fans of Argentinos Juniors are going to the field earlier, today or at the age of 12,
the boy who used to perform various tricks with the ball at half time on the field,
Diego will make his debut today! The boy is not yet 18 years old!
.
Maradona made his debut 10 days before he set foot in the 18th, and went down to play
with Tallares de Cordoba in the number 17 jersey. In just 10 minutes of his debut, Tallares'
star player Juan Domingo Cabrera scored a goal! His first goal came two weeks after his 18th
goal for Argentinos Juniors. That was just the beginning .... He made his national team debut the following year.
.
The news spread; The boy named Maradona of Argentinos Juniors plays great ....
Boiki used to play it!
.
He has played five seasons for the Argentinos Juniors, scoring 115 goals in 16 games,
becoming the team's top scorer each season. Then came offers from many teams, but chose
his own dream club Boca Juniors, joining the Argentine league giants in 1981 for 4m.
.
In the debut match, he got that Tallares again, this time he scored 2 goals, the team won
by a huge margin of 4-1. He also painted his first Superclassico well, losing 1-0 to River
Tarantini-Phillol in a 3-0 loss to River Plate.
.
After the 72nd World Cup, Dak joined from Spain, joining the whole of Argentina against fans
at a record £ 5m in Barcelona. In the early training sessions after coming to the club,
the teammates used to watch him play and stand with a smile on their faces. Spent two seasons there,
won the 1973 Copa del Rey, also won the Spanish Super Cup. In the El Clasico match, Santiago Bernabeu
dribbled Real keeper Augustine to a vacant post, after which Real defender Juan Jose tackled a slide to save the end,
easily avoiding that tackle, then sending the ball into the empty net.
.
At first a few people saw it, then the whole Santiago Bernabeu burst into applause.
.
He joined Napoli in 1974, the name of this club in the south of Italy was not known at that time,
he did not have to burn wood to bring him to Napoli, he broke his own record and joined at 6.9m.
News headlines in Napoli newspapers; "The mayor, the house, the school, the sanitation, nothing comes of it,
we have Maradona now." Napoli's Stadio also stood in front of 75,000 spectators in San Paolo wearing Napoli jerseys,
the first time everyone in Naples saw their hero ... their Diego ....
.
Two seasons later, the 1986 Mexico World Cup, Maradona is now the captain of the national team.
He played every minute of the entire tournament,
contributing 10 of Argentina's 14 goals (5 goals + 5 assists) throughout the tournament,
two of which were in the quarter-final loss to England. The first goal was very famous,
the goalkeeper lost the ball to Shilton and sent the ball into the net using his hand,
the referee did not show it and the goal was not canceled.
.
But the second goal ...
Maradona got the ball from his teammate and started running from midfield ... then?
Listen to the BBC commentator on that match, Brian Butler:
.
"Maradona turns like a little eel and gets away from trouble, little squat man, comes
inside Butcher and leaves him for dead, Outside Fenwick and leaves him for dead, puts the ball away!
That's why he's the greatest player in the world!"
In honor of his goal, Mexican football erected his sculpture in front of the Aztec Stadium in Mexico.
.
Maradona was fouled a total of 53 times in that tournament, dribble attempted a total of 90.
He also scored the goal of winning the final match. He returned to Italy after winning the World Cup.
.
The reign of Juventus-Milan was going on in Italy then. No club in the southern part of
Italy has ever won a league, but he is Maradona, he is the savior of Naples!
Became the captain of the team, the team won the 1986 Italian Serie-R title. A week-long festival
took place in Naples, with Maradona murals erected all over the city walls, and newborns named after Maradona.
After that he became runners-up in 6-7 and 6-79 seasons, again he won Serie-A in 69-90 seasons.
He also won the Coppa Italia of 69 and the Italian Super Cup of 90. He became the highest goal
scorer with 15 goals in 6-7 seasons. Along with Giordano and Carreca, Deadly Ma-Gi-Ca shared the attack.
At the time of his departure, the club's top goal scorer, Napoleo Maradona, retired the number 10 jersey.
.
Milan's Franco Baresi and Paolo Maldini are asked separately who is the best player to face them.
Both had the same answer:
"Maradona."
.
Born in the small Lags of Buenos Aires, found in God-like love in Naples,
he left his mark on the whole football world.
Thanks for Everything, Diego!
You will always be in the 1st row of the best in the history of football.
He will not be in everyone's heart.
Diego Armando Maradona is one of the legends of world football.
He is the master of both Hand of God and Goal of the Century in the history of football.
He has played in four World Cups in his entire career and has played in two World Cup finals.
The football world has also seen his talent in the age-based team. He also has the taste of
winning the World Cup for children.
Many of his contemporaries may have had more speed with the ball than Maradona, a player might
have dribbled better than Maradona. But the difference here is the pressure, the stress.
Not everyone can play well under pressure. If there is pressure, even good players from good
clubs like Higuain send the ball out over the goalkeeper's head. A player like Beckham,
who is famous for spot kicks, missed four penalties in a row for England. At other times,
Beckham's goal from a free kick was like 'dal bhat'. The most important thing for a player
is to be able to play normally even under pressure. And who in the history of football has
done better than Maradona with a relatively weak team?
We may not have had the good fortune to watch his football, but I can proudly say that Argentina's
biggest star said goodbye to the world in our time.❤️
