Millions of people from all over the world said goodbye and paid tribute, in their own way, to Diego Maradona.
The Argentine star died at the age of 60 due to a cardiorespiratory arrest while recovering after his last operation.
Among many, Juan roman riquelme, the top idol of Boca Juniors, who had been fighting with ‘Pelusa’ for some years.
Riquelme, today president of the ‘Xeneize’ Football Commission, left the differences aside and dismissed Diego with a video and a brief message.
“The first ten”, published Riquelme on his Instagram account. Words that were accompanied by a series of images that moved the entire Boca world to tears.
“Watching him play was incredibly beautiful. Thanks Diego”, Roman closed.
We find that Maradona and Riquelme publicly faced each other when the former directed the Argentina team. The one from Fiorito questioned Roman’s football level in public and the current Boca leader resigned from the ‘albiceleste’ team.
