Maradona was always a controversial man. Maradona fought against The Pope, FIFA (Joseph Blatter, Joao Havelange and now Gianni Infantino), Argentinian's president, great explayers, etc. However, against the United States is his most important fight for 3 reasons. The most famous was The World Cup 1994, an important situation in his life. United States 1994 was his last World Cup and Maradona, in this competition, said his famous phrase: "They cut my legs".

His playing time for the tournament is restricted to two appearances, totalling 173 minutes on the field of play. On 29 June, Sepp Blatter, announced: “Both analysis of the urine sample have proved positive. The player Diego Maradona of the Argentinian national team has therefore violated the conditions of the doping control regulations, in the match Argentina, Nigeria.”

Basile’s men did not win another game at the tournament. They lost their remaining group game 2-0 to Bulgaria before going out in the next round after losing 3-2 to Romania.

Second: The bussiness of his wife. Mrs. Claudia Villafañe had properties acquired within the period of the marriage. There were three. She had like four or three corporations that are active and others are not. The corporations are small parts of the daughters names like Giadalmar, Dalmar, Gianmar and many more. Behind that you can hide properties and businesses.

Third: Maradona and his relationship with Cuba and Fidel Castro. His trip to Cuba came in 2000. He was treated to eradicate the need to take drugs from his body. Fidel Castro closely followed the Argentine detoxification process, they became close friends. Fate would have them both died on the same day, four years apart. Maradona said: "I lived in Cuba for 4 years and Fidel called me at 2 in the morning to talk about politics or sports or whatever happened in the world and I was ready, it is the most beautiful memory I have left".
