\u201cThe great merit of Maradona is that he played alone against the world,\u201d Fernandez said. \u201cI\u2019ve never seen a player like Maradona. I admire him deeply \u2013 more than Messi, to be honest, because he comes from the Argentinos\u2019 youth. He was a kind of gladiator, with incredible strength.\u201d<\/p>\n
