The Argentine National Team will also have its shirt for Diego Maradona
The Argentine National Team will take to the field against Chile with a shirt tribute to Diego Maradona. At first, there was speculation about the possibility of a FIFA sanction, since this type of action is not allowed. However, hours later it was confirmed that by direct order of Gianni Infantino the AFA will not be fined. “Diego is Diego, the regulation does not matter”, would have been the phrase that decreed the end of the discussion.
