Maradona dies, emotional response from Gary Linecker: I hope I finally find peace

Argentinian legend is believed to be one of the largest football players ever to set foot in a football field, writes Periscopi.

News of his death is a tragedy for global football, while Gary Linecker is among the first to react.

The reports from Argentina are that Diego Armando Maradona is dead. Remotely the best player in the generation and, for discussion, the best of all time.

After a blessed but troubled life, I hope to finally find comfort in God's hands. /Periscope. com/
