The former Argentine player Diego Maradona paid tribute to Skin for his 80 years in a message published this Friday (23) on social networks.
“I want to join this universal tribute, happy 80 years of life, Rei Pelé !!!”, the former captain of the Argentine team, world champion in Mexico in 1986, wrote on Facebook.
Along with the text, Maradona added two photos of the two ex-footballers, one hugging and the other with the two smiling.
The Argentine idol ratified as soon as the differences that separated the two soccer stars, considered the best players of the 20th century, according to FIFA, were left behind.
– Love and hate-
Maradona, who will turn 60 on October 30, made his debut in the First Division in October 1976. A year later, Pelé said goodbye to football.
They never met in the field, but outside they clashed, made friends, competed and reconciled.
They met in 1979 and what seemed like a good relationship ended up a winding road.
Pelé did not forgive Maradona for his vices and acts of rebellion, the Argentine despised Pelé for his connection with football cartography, to the point that he began to call him a “FIFA slave” and Joseph’s “remote control doll” Blatter. , former president of the entity that commands world football.
The Brazilian, for his part, assured that the Argentine “only had a left foot”, that he was “a bad example” and that “his only important goal was made with his hand”, referring to the first goal against England (2 to 1) in the quarterfinals of the 1986 World Cup.
After years of separation, they met again in 2005, when Maradona had Pelé as the first special guest on his television show “La Noche del 10”.
– Peace signature –
Before, the Brazilian star had attended the farewell to Argentine professional football at the La Bombonera stadium in 2001.
However, Maradona would repeat some of his witty phrases against his historic rival.
“He took the wrong pill. Instead of taking the sleeping pill, he took the morning pill and is now confused. I suggest that next time you take your medication well and change your doctor ”, declared the Argentine after Pele considered Neymar a better player than Lionel Messi.
“I don’t like comparisons with Pelé because of the nonsense he talks about. He keeps talking nonsense when he takes the wrong pill, “he said in 2013.
Until in 2016 they sealed the reconciliation.
“No more fighting,” Maradona said when they met in Paris for a “party for peace” organized by a watch brand.
“Now we are holding hands,” replied Pele, on the arm of Maradona, who helped him enter the event facilities while walking with a cane.
On the spot, they exchanged a big hug.
