The soccer world has lost a legend, Diego Armando Maradona, one of the game’s best and arguably the greatest player of all time has passed away at the age of 60. Maradona is considered the best player of his generation, because how simple he made the game, and his impact he had on the millions of fans who witnessed his greatness.
I never had the privilege to see him play, but watching videos on his greatest moments during his successful 1986 World Cup and his glory days with Napoli, I understood the level of greatest this man possessed. With the ball at his feet, he turned himself into a genius, and created chances seemingly out of nowhere and left people in awe.
