This evening, the Argentine government has decided to suspend the meditation of Argentines in front of Diego Maradona’s coffin. There were so many people that security was overwhelmed. The police had to evict visitors from the presidential palace, which caused riots. While the coffin was to be exposed to the public for several days, it may now be that the burial is advanced. It is to say the passion and the immense sadness which embraces the Argentines since yesterday. Oswaldo Piazza is obviously no exception.
“Our god has been taken away from us”
The libero of the heyday of ASSE (1972-79) shared his sadness on the airwaves of France Bleu: “Our god has been taken from us. Here, it’s total madness and I’m even a little afraid. because a lot of people do not wear masks. It’s madness and not only in Buenos Aires but also in all the provinces. People cry a lot. They are very sad and feel a great absence. It was our god who was doing gestures to protect us “.
“Diego grew up in a slum, often with nothing to eat. His parents did what they could to raise him and his sisters. When he rose to prominence, the first thing he did was is to put his family away. Then he ate life. Diego died at 60 but it’s as if he had lived three lives. So yes, there were excesses but, today ‘ hui, if our country is known in the world, it is thanks to him. “
