Paula Dapena Has Got Malice For Departed Football Legend Diego Maradona

Someone’s not happy with the late legendary footballer, Diego Maradona.

Paula Dapena. While her mates paid homage to the departed Argentine before they traded tackles with Deportivo La Coruna in an exhibition game three days ago, the Viajes Interrias FF midfielder sat down and faced away from the tribune.

Her gesture caused quite a stir but you need to hear her explain her actions.

“A few days ago there was the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women and there was no such gesture: if the minute’s silence is not observed for the victims of violence, Iam not prepared to do it for a rapist”, she said.

You can recall that Maradona was allegedly accused of domestic violence and one too many sex scandals with women during his time here. A video even surfaced in 2014, of him arguing with his then girlfriend and then appearing to hit her.

El Pibe de Oro debunked the accusations though: I grabbed the phone but I swear to God that I have never hit a woman.

Maradona was a phenom on the pitch but his personality off it was very much questionable. He might not be the worst of the bunch who played when hooliganism and such scandals was rife but you find it hard disagreeing with Dapena.

However, I just hope she let go soon.
