Argentine media reported that Maradona, a football legend, died of a heart attack in her home near the capital of Buenos Aires.



It has been 20 days since I had undergone brain surgery on the last 3 days and started recovering.



Maradona, who also led the Argentine professional football team Himnacia this season, was an Argentine soccer hero.



Born in 1960, he made his professional debut at the age of 16, and has performed globally through the prestigious Boca Juniors in Argentina and Naples, Italy.



With a small but solid body, a gorgeous dribbling and a powerful left foot kick, he became a hero by leading Argentina to the 1986 World Cup in Mexico.



There was also a lot of controversy, a representative case of the'Hand of God', which scored a goal by hand against England in the quarterfinals of the Mexico World Cup.



In this competition, we also competed with our country.



Having met Korea in the group stage, Maradona took the lead in a 3-1 victory with 3 assists.



Heo Jeong-moo, who had a fierce confrontation on the ground at the time, led a 4-1 victory in the 2010 South Africa World Cup as the command tower.



Argentina and the world soccer community expressed condolences for the news of the death of a football legend.



Argentine President Alberto Fernandez has declared a three-day national mourning period, and Brazil's Pele, who is considered the best player of all time along with Maradona, said goodbye, saying, "Someday we will kick the ball together in the sky."
