What happened to Maradona?


I was looking at footage from old world cups and he was great! what happened?

He was one of the greatest football players ever but he got into drugs and alcohol and he became an adict. As he was treated like a god in Argentina (and around the world), he got a lot of power which in the end corrupted him and his way of living. He has been nearly dead many times but he seems not to have learned his lesson. Another fallen idol due to drugs. Althoug he is not dead yet, he has not changed his style of living so, really there's little hope for him.
