I think Mr. Trend hits the right note here with regard to Diego Maradona's petulant outburst. It isn't about Argentine football; it's about him. All about him.
Apparently some of his fellow Argentines feel the same way:
Gustavo Sorange, 47, a carpenter from Gen. Juan Madariaga, southeast of Buenos Aires, said some of his friends were so disillusioned with Mr. Maradona that they rooted for Uruguay.
“They didn’t want Argentina to win because of Maradona,” he said, stunned at the betrayal. “That’s the way things are here in Argentina. You win well, you play beautifully. And if you don’t, then you’re not good for anything.”
The man is an entire cargo hold of baggage. The AFA would be well advised to replace him. He's a two-legged telenovela.
