Fans at World Cup pay homage to football great Diego Maradona with shirts and chants
DOHA: Javier Maluf will quietly put on a shirt worn by Diego Maradona against England, but other fans at the World Cup have more noisy plans for Friday’s second anniversary of the death of the flawed genius. Argentina’s legion of supporters may also be praying to the sporting gods that the late football great can still inspire his country to victory over Mexico on Saturday to keep their hopes in Qatar alive. Maluf is like many Argentina fans who have never fully recovered from Maradona’s death from a heart attack at the age of 60.
