As the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia has come to an end, the special series featuring former Argentina footballer and coach Diego Maradona has also signed off.
The hugely popular show showcased the 57-year-old sharing his own stories as well as his predictions and analysis of World Cup matches, leaving a huge impression among football fans across the globe.
Maradona led Argentina to their second World Cup triumph in 1986 and in 1990, he guided the side to the final in Italy. He coached the Albiceleste in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa where the Argentines failed miserably.
He was a brand ambassador at the 2018 tournament in Russia and he caught global attention with his dramatic appearances during a slew of matches.
He was seen animatedly cheering for Argentina while his no-holds-barred pre-match and post-match analyses of the games were quite popular with fans.
