It does a week, died owing to an unemployed cardiorrespiratoria and to the age of 60 years Diego Armando Maradona, one of the best players of the history of the football. Of course, they were a lot of those that surrendered tribute to the 'lint' of several forms, seeing minutes of silence in great quantity of parties and even celebrations of goals for homenajear to the Argentinian myth.

During the FC Barcelona-Osasuna, Leo Messi also wanted to surrender him tribute. It received a balloon in three chambers of field, threw the diagonal and, when it was in the frontal of the area, crossed the balloon to command it to the square of the goal defended by Herrera. Later, it celebrated the goal beside his mates and, before going to the central circle, removed the Barcelona T-shirt to show that, below, carried one of Newell's OldBoys .

Of course, the collegiate Mateu Lahoz had to apply the regulation and show him a yellow cardboard to Leo Messi due to the fact that all action to remove the T-shirt in the celebration of a goal is punished.

It will be necessary to see if it prospers the new resource of the FC Barcelona.
