Diego Armando Maradona, collides with the police in Buenos Aires. The idea of ​​the funeral of the sample already tonight- Corriere.it

Too much pain, too many people, too much of everything. Argentina in shock and with a suffering heart, a suffering heart, so much that Diego Maradona’s funeral should already take place tonight and not on Saturday, at the express request of the family, but also of the government and the police, who have to face a wave of men and an impressive and uncontrollable emotion. The vigil at the government building in downtown Buenos Aires will last until 4 pm local time, 8 pm Italian time. But already in these hours the situation has gone crazy, the policemen in front of the Casa Rosada no longer know how to keep people in line for hours. As it was basically predictable, imaginable, natural. You can’t help crying, Argentina. As for Evita, like Carlos Gardel, like Ernesto Guevara, although in Che, who was from Rosario, the Argentines basically never forgave having made the revolution far from their land. Not like Diego, who gave everything for his people, in his eternal holy war against everything that was imposition, oppression, imperialism.

Today, when you go out on the court, remember that you are playing not only for yourself, but for your brothers, your cousins, your friends who were murdered in the Falklands was the creepy speech to the teammates before that mythical match with England in 1986 that is part of everyone’s life, not just Argentines. That was it, Diego. Excessive and wrong as much as you want. But certainly for the Argentines a hero of the people, a leader of the people, a father of the country, because his thing was not only football, it was the sacred cry, the sacred cry of freedom freedom freedom that shouted in the face of the world that night at ‘Olimpico in the 1990 final, when the anthem was blown, which for an Argentine is like insulting your mother. The last and only time that the Casa Rosada hosted a funeral home for an athlete was in 1995 for the driver Juan Manuel Fangio. Anyone who knows about the mystique that makes Argentines a unique people because they are incomprehensible and incomprehensible because they are unique as Osvaldo Soriano wrote, knows that the only comparison that Evita Perón has, whose funeral in 1952 was attended by millions of people. Same humble origins, she and Diego, same popular anger, same social revenge, same sense of the people, same talent for the effect of the word, for provocation, for the theatrical gesture. And for leaving the scene.
