I'm surprised that this hasn't been mentioned here in the forums or articles, but yeah the legendary Maradona has sadly died after suffering a fatal heart attack yesterday.
Three days of national mourning have been announced in Argentina to mark the passing of their national hero, while his legions of fans from around the world have also been paying their respects upon learning of this unexpected and sorrowful news.
A larger than life character, the most gifted, skillful, exciting player of his generation and perhaps even the greatest footballer of all time. Truly a wizard on the pitch, and equally unpredictable away from it. May he rest in peace.
*Obligatory hand of god footage. Sorry England fans, couldn't resist.
