Football legend Maradona passes away at 60 due to cardiac arrest

Football legend Diego Maradona passed away on November 25 due to a heart attack, according to reports.

The 60-year-old had earlier had an emergency operation for a subdural hematoma, which is an accumulation of blood between a membrane and his brain.

Maradona, regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time, helped Argentina win the World Cup in 1986, the pinnacle of an illustrious career.

He played club football for Boca Juniors, Napoli and Barcelona among others and was adored by millions for his brilliant skills.

Maradona was responsible for the infamous ‘Hand of God’ that eliminated England from the 1986 tournament.

Retired Brazilian soccer star Pele said it is sad to “lose friends this way.”
