Napoli paid tribute to Diego Maradona and presented a commemorative statue | VIDEO

The death of Diego Armando Maradona generated great regret in the world of football, especially in Napoli, a club that saw the Argentine star shine. Precisely, a few days ago (November 25) the first anniversary of the death of the world champion with Argentina was celebrated and there were tributes in different parts of the world, such as the one organized by the ‘Azules’.

The Italian institution did not miss the opportunity to hold a special ceremony, taking advantage of the match they have at home against Lazio on the 14th date of Serie A. The board carefully planned everything and even made a pleasant impression on the fans by revealing a statue.

The stadium, also known as Diego Maradona for a year, was completely sold out and at first everything looked dark, although the lights of the fans’ cell phones were noticeable. At the same time, some images of the remembered Argentine athlete were shown in the surroundings, standing out in the middle of the gloom.

In the same way, the musical background related to the ‘D10S’ sounded in the background, which generated more emotion. Then, it was time to reveal a commemorative statue to the football legend, which reflected one of the stages he lived with Napoli. It is worth mentioning that the base of this sculpture was in the shape of the number ’10’.

In addition, as happened in the past dates, the Neapolitan squad came out with the shirt that has Diego Maradona’s face stamped on the front. The party has to be complete and therefore the players will leave the game motivated to continue at the top of Serie A, as in the times of the ‘Pibe de Oro’.
