What Ale said is true, many people were cheering for Maradona in 1990 WC semifinals against Italia at San Paolo. The significance and meaning of bringing the only two Scudetti any southern Italian team has ever won cannot be measured. He is and always will be the King of Napoli.
@Charles Picaully Absolutely... Although I loved senna but I thought Schumacher was the best out there.. Totally ruthless and magnificent.. Best driver in rain miles ahead
As a Napolitan, my heart is broken. What you have done for us, on and off the pitch, against impossible odds, will never be forgotten. We lost the greatest of all time.
I was 14 years old in Beijing, China watching World Cup on a black and white TV mesmerized by Maradona. I'm still a devoted Argentina national team fan today.
@@moisesescudero8611 yes, drugs and excesses ruined him decades ago. But still, every player and person that met him personally, always said that he was a very generous and humble person. I guess it's very difficult to cope with so much fame
@@moisesescudero8611 do you know how hard it is to resist temptation when the Italian mafia literally bribes you with cocaine and woman to lose a championship because they have bets on other teams?
I was 5 years old in 1986 back home in Nigeria West Africa, watching, idolizing and dreamt of playing like Diego Maradona. Diego stole the show single handedly & won the 86 World Cup to set the whole world ablaze with the splendor of his magnificent talent. My heart aches as I mourn you, your smile is always the best. He is always hugging and kissing. The love in his heart is for the world because he didn’t just belong to Argentina nor Napoli, he belongs to the football world & we lost a legend. Adieu Diego Armando Maradona
K’iin Yuum No you fool. Moreno is explaining how Maradona was his idol growing up, that’s why he would watch Napolé (Naples) play on the TV every Sunday morning! Because Maradona his idol was playing for Napolé!!!
Europeans, outside of Italians, will never understand the importance of Maradona like other continents. And I'm hardly referring to just South Americans. He really had a special connection with all fans.
Your wrong I'm English and I wasn't quite a teenager when I got see to watch him . Everything moreno said about watching him as a child applied to me .He was a godly Magician .Even when he scored with his hand I didn't hold it against him.
I an from pakistan and I never saw him play. All I ever wanted in the world of sports was to watch Liverpool win the league, meet Maradona and meet sir Vivian Richards (cricketer). I met Sir Vivian a few years back watched Liverpool win the league this year but could never meet Maradona :(. My father was a fan and so i became one too. His passion for the game was so much. Can't forget the emotional roller coaster he used to go through during every argentina match in world cups
@sp1878 If you watched the 86 world cup you realised how other worldly he was. It came both in the hype of Maradona and what he did on the field. I remember the journalists were free to talk to every other players in that world cup, but because the demand for Maradona was so high, they had to charge the journalists if they wanted an interview otherwise he'd never be left alone. It might not sound that big a deal today, but back then it was groundbreaking: paying to get an interview. It was the whole aura around him like he was destined for greatness... and it was fulfilled. 1986 world cup in Mexico which was the first world cup I remember.
Maradona was probably the most naturally talented footballer ever.For skill,technique,ability to transform and win games single handed only Messi comes close.But to say he transformed Napoli on his own is inaccurate.Sure they would not have won anything without him but he played with Ciro Ferrara(7 Scudetti),a young Gianfranco Zola,Fernando de Napoli(over 50 Italy caps).He played in a front 3 known as Ma-Gi-Ca:Maradona,Bruno Giordano and Antonio Careca which was one of the most devastating forward lines in Europe.Maradona was the key,the match winner but football is still 11 against 11.
Grew up watching and every kid wanted to be maradona, hope your at peace you left a legacy which won’t be replaced, simply a genius, thank you for the memories ❤️
I think the game has changed a bit. Much faster, players have to be super athletes. Can’t see Maradona in a Klopp team pressing relentlessly No comparison really
Beautifully put Ale...I have very similar emotional connections watching the Napoli games on SBS channel here in Australia when I was a boy, growing up in Sydney - having been born in Buenos Aires. Muy bien pibe...gracias.
I first saw maradona at the 86 world cup sitting in my house in glasgow.and my god that man made me love football.this little man destroying teams single handed,when he had the ball he made things happen.when things weren't going well did he hide,no he went got that ball and took it to everybody and the rest is history.what a LEGEND
Its seems impressive to hear your words , as an argentine i am, i was super lucky to have em in my national team . I appreciate your words , and hope some even better comes to the field . No matter which nation
So true what veron said. I was 5 when I watched 82WC and dad would let me stay up. The next one in Mexiko i didn’t missed a second total already in love and fanatical about the game at nine years of age. Diego was ruling the game at that point. Everyone knew he was special and after the press conference from the England game immortal. La mano de dios . For decades people would make jokes about it on the pitch. He did so well of being himself and less political correct. His quality is outstanding with not even god itself doubting it. All these memories, all these stories we witnessed words cannot describe that man. Every player comparison to him is laughable at best. He was so much more than just a player. I am German and he was THE opponent in that time but man I have never heard any of my mates saying anything but respect. I love him honestly and when I saw the message on my phone popping up I couldn’t hold back crying due to all these memories and times he provided for the sport
I was a white kid growing up in North America in the 80s. I did not know much about football before Italia 1990, the first ever World Cup I ever watched with my dad. Because of Diego, I fell in love with the game and 30 years later, its still an integral part of my life. Thank you Diego.
@ShakaTech_ Zone it has to do with a lot. Most players are taller than average humans because it helps with tackling, heading, strength, and a lot more. That’s why maradona is so great despite his size
Yeah, Messi's the exact same, the low centre of gravity equals quick changes of direction. Back in the day Maradona was booted about by defenders, football was different back then.
@@Zakoid1 So was my hero Jimmy Johnstone like Maradona he was small and a wizard with the ball at his feet the best player ever to come out of the small part of Scotland we call home
I am not really a football fan, but I absolutely love Diego Maradona. He is the king of football, like Elvis Presley was the king of rock & roll. Diego Maradona was in a league of his own. I was surprised how sad it made me when I heard that he had passed. He is greatly missed. May he rest in peace.
You can’t be passionate about football without loving Maradona. That stadium story is the kind of story about Diego we want to hear, not like some media re-hashing his faults while the man has just died! Reminisce the dead with their goodness.
So emotional, even when he retired his class always remained. His skill was eternal, just like his class was. His self was always eternal, always true to himself and the world. There was no such thing as form to him just eternal class & talent for the huge passion he has for futebol & his country even when he retired. A man who did not need to come from his country to inspire, define and motivate an entire generation, even at a time when Ballon D'Or was only given to Europeans. Now imagine if at the time Ballon D'or could have been given to non-Europeans? He is now with God. A man who would put smiles on everyone's face with his dance moves, talent and man, no matter what team people supported, would always make you want to watch him. What a legend. And the only non-Portuguese player that my father loved both of the same age, a man who even inspired many generations to achieve the impossible. A man who would show the world what pride means to a country, today you can't find it ... a man who would always make you feel proud of your country like he did for Argentina. A man who is considered a God ... an idol ... an eternal ... a legend ... the man who never fails to surprise anyone. A man that some say was born at a time when drugs were everywhere and there was no avoiding it, especially if you were famous or pressured. Imagine if drugs were not so important at this time? Imagine if it didn't explode at this time? He would have achieved what many would not be able to achieve in years ... or would like to achieve in years, but did not ... a man who would bring joy to his country and the world in relation to his country and his passion for football . There are only a few players you could say, who have the same characteristics as him and certainly not Messi; he admitted it himself. Ronaldo, Pelè, Iker, Inestia & etc. A man who inspired many ... what a story to tell ... now imagine if your film really ended ... time may pass quickly, but the story always remains. REST IN ETERNAL PEACE LEGEND MARADONA. ONE OF THE GREATEST PLAYERS OF ALL TIME !!! FOREVER. D10S. 🖤⚽️🕊😭⛪🙏😔 Now all players care about nowadays is who has the most likes whose more popular, not even showing true passion or pride in the sport but for the huge amounts of money that they get paid with. Its honestly surprising that nowadays the new generations mostly play for the money and not the support but not Maradona. He didn't care about the money, he just wanted to play futebol...😭 The true definition of the world's golden boy who became an eternal legend. Nowadays Golden Boys turn out to be nothing like Maradona or the award itself when Maradona created it and held it for so many years proving that he was an actual golden boy. 😭😭😭😭😭🕊🖤💙🔵⚪⛪😭😔 Kinda also sad that people are bandwagons and only realized how much of a legend this man was with all the criticsm he got all these years and only being fully respected until now. What shame. To me he was always respected and an eternal legend. One of the greatest futebol stars of all times with the goal of the century and imo the player of the century by far.
Maradona was the kind of player that can fit in any team at any time, and also could help the team win titles single handedly. His influence was humungous. 🔥❤️🙏
He could do that because he was the team. It was not just about making goals by himself, he wanted the others to score too, he was an unreal strategist, a Lion warrior and a leader since he was 18
Maradona passing is mourned across "South America"... LoL he was as popular as Jordan and Ali put together. But I understand the american media not getting it as they are not into football unlike 98% of the globe.
Back in the day these were our influencers, icons moved by purpose and kindness, nowadays is a different story, that's why Diego is larger than life, I keep saying this until younger generations understand, the champions, the greatests, are not made solely by trophies or titles, there are thousands with one or more of those, but very few stand the pace of time in history, generation after generation, reaching legend status. I was a little girl in 1986, didn't know or care about football, but knew one name, Diego Armando Maradona.
@@skusaid8512 its not as if i said his wc was better than Maradona i simply said his own personal performance regardless of whom he played with was spectacular.
@@marcsugi Zidane 98, r u serious? He was sent off in the group stage match, missed the 3rd match, missed the last 16, played a nil nil qtr final against Italy and a 2-1 sf against Croatia where he did close to nothing. Only shone in the final. You can say 2006, where he was more influential.
for those who would like to know: Veron was a tremendous player but in the 2002WC were Argentina was sent back home in the group stage, despite being favorites and having an all star team with Bielsa as a head coach, we played against England and he was a ManU player at the time so the legend says that he started throwing the ball off the pitch on purpose and making bad passes. Y'all can search the match and see it four for yourselves. After that he never played for the national team until that match in 2008. Then he went to south Africa for the wc and won the Copa Libertadores with Estudiantes in 2009 as MVP.
Maradona was the personification of a one man show. Not Cristiano Ronaldo, not Messi. Maradona was strong enough to carry the game on his shoulders. He is a man's man, not a metro sexual Prima Donna. He carried the team and he carried the stadium and he carried the nation.
I was in the stadium that night, the ones booing Veron were the idiots that believed the myth that Veron didn't play good against England in 2002 because he was a Manchester United player. When Maradona told people to clap, the ones that clapped were the ones like me, that thought the booing was ridiculous. The ones that were booing, didn't clapped, just stay quiet and looked stupid.
As a man United fan, And like captain veron. It's bummer that he wasn't right fit for Man United. I'm not sure if Sir Alex even used him well or as you said was shadow And his former self.
Ale Moreno perfectly described the ambience when Maradona is present and the symbiosis between Maradona and the people. This sentiment will be eternal.
yes i remember looking forward to watch SERIE A... during Maradona era that was the best footballers gather and yet he exceled them all ... best football times
I could relate to Ale since we're both the same age. The panini world cup collectibles, watching Sunday serie a match highlight show just because of diego maradona. Also bought the maradona, greatest player in the world video/documentary on VHS tape when it came out in 1989. Lost count of how many times I've watched the video. Was really devastated when Argentina lost to Germany in italia90 final.
so true what u said about world cup semifinal between argentina italia. I am from a ischia, near napoli, was a kid 14 years and remember some friends wearing the argentine shirt troughall the competition
Maradona reminds me of a famous India movie dialogue from movie Deewar.. Northern Italy: We have fame, money, business, greatness... What do you (Naples) have Naples: I have Ma.. (Mother) Northern Italy:?? Naples: Maradona
Netflix has a limited 6 episode show of Maradona coaching a club in Mexico. It's called Maradona in Sinaloa. It was not bad and it was a little over a year old.
He'd of done it anywhere pal. Saw him live 4 times ABSOLUTELY spell bounding talent. Only player who comes close to him for god given talent was george best. 2 greatest players I've ever seen.

Although I’m a massive Pelé fan- Maradona highlighted my inner maverick and I’ll love him forever despite the hand of god
I was in the stadium that night, the ones booing Veron were the idiots that believed the myth that Veron didn't play good against England in 2002 because he was a Manchester United player. When Maradona told people to clap, the ones that clapped were the ones like me, that thought the booing was ridiculous. The ones that were booing, didn't clapped, just stay quiet and looked stupid.
It’s still painful of Veron’s time as a Manchester United player. Complete shadow of his former self. Couldn’t replicate his performances from Lazio 😫
It wasnt just him theres a long list of south americans not performing for United
As a man United fan, And like captain veron. It's bummer that he wasn't right fit for Man United. I'm not sure if Sir Alex even used him well or as you said was shadow And his former self.
Parma was prime veron
Thank you god for this wonderfull player. May he rest in your eternal glory.
Orgullo de ser argentino es el regalo mas hermoso de dios
Ale Moreno perfectly described the ambience when Maradona is present and the symbiosis between Maradona and the people. This sentiment will be eternal.
He was one of the few that made me emotional when Maradona passed away.
yes i remember looking forward to watch SERIE A... during Maradona era that was the best footballers gather and yet he exceled them all ... best football times
I could relate to Ale since we're both the same age. The panini world cup collectibles, watching Sunday serie a match highlight show just because of diego maradona. Also bought the maradona, greatest player in the world video/documentary on VHS tape when it came out in 1989. Lost count of how many times I've watched the video. Was really devastated when Argentina lost to Germany in italia90 final.
I had to trade Rummenigge plus Lineker for that Maradona Panini stickers ... and no regret.
@@marcsugi I'm sure it's worth it.
He explained exactly everyone lived that time how they lived that time and how they felt when they heard about Maradonas death.
What a great man....He lived! He still lives!!!
"They were to watch Diego walk the technical area.."
Veron is fantastic! I would always cheer him!
You can't beat nostalgia
so true what u said about world cup semifinal between argentina italia. I am from a ischia, near napoli, was a kid 14 years and remember some friends wearing the argentine shirt troughall the competition
I love listening to Gab, he is one of the greatest story teller.
when i was a 3 years old my father have argentinian jersey Maradona... and his Poster in our room. and then i love football and argentina
That’s jus the influence of a legends
What a great tribute!
Perhaps the goals Vs England in the world cup in 86' best showcased the contrasting sides to Maradona's personality and unquestionable genius.
I love Ali, what great personal story’s
What an analyser this guy from Venzuela!
Veron had a bad dispute with Maradona later and was unthankful.
Awesome analysis!!
So sad 😞 😥
Great 👍 story tribute
In case you missed it Moreno got the Maradona card.
HOW does this Moreno guy comment on Argentina and Maradona not even MENTION the Falkland Islands and the 1986 WC?
People had very deep issues with Veron after the 2002 world cup and wasnt drafted on the 2006 world cup
Greatest player of all time by a country mile.
Veron was blamed for the debacle of Argentina in the 2002 World Cup that is why he was booed...
"Its difficult to put into words"...
And then he talks non-stop for half an hour!
you proved his point
maradona is nombre one spportives ivaar 😓❤️⚽
Maradona reminds me of a famous India movie dialogue from movie Deewar..
Northern Italy: We have fame, money, business, greatness... What do you (Naples) have
Naples: I have Ma.. (Mother)
Northern Italy:??
Naples: Maradona
Sir Juan Sebastian Veron
D10S ETERNAMENTE!!!!
I love his Spanish accent
It’s Venezuelan but yeah
Spanish is nothing Compared to French haha
@@thekidFL6 so the language is Venezuelan?....
@@reset_1996 just dumb
@@reset_1996 no, it’s a Venezuelan accent. Different from Spanish
Nice touch with the suit. 👍🏼
Netflix has a limited 6 episode show of Maradona coaching a club in Mexico. It's called Maradona in Sinaloa. It was not bad and it was a little over a year old.
Fantastic story
Veron was a class player
5:44 Maradona Veron story
So.... what documentary was he referring to??! Can anyone tell me or mention the link or heading for me to look for? Please?!!
Diego Maradona by Asif Kapadia. 2019 one, I guess. Won Bafta etc
But could he have done it on a rainy night in Stoke?
He'd of done it anywhere pal. Saw him live 4 times ABSOLUTELY spell bounding talent. Only player who comes close to him for god given talent was george best. 2 greatest players I've ever seen.
Even when that time comes, Messi would not get this type of reception in Argentina
After the win against the Italians
The Italian fans stayed and alluded him....at least some of them
Law of Atraction at works: 0:26 it stated with a emotional connection and ended up on a field together.
Every kid growing up in the 80s that played soccer in the school yard when they scored they were Maradona
the one and only
He was unbelievable simple...pele zidane best and messi! They come close but he edges it! The best ever has just passed away! Gutted!
You can clearly see the admiration that Ale has for Maradona. Never liked him much as a pundit, but respect just for this.
Reference to Maradona - celeste sakko and white shirt?
I know i know its not the time but the guy really said soccer
Spot on Ale
The greatest influencer in the world, true leader, unusual personality, like he was directly sent by God to Earth to unite people with LOVE....
