Description: This person died in 2020 at age 60. FIFA, soccer’s governing body, voted him and Pelé the sport’s two greatest players of the century. He led Argentina to win a legendary World Cup in 1986, scoring one of history’s most controversial goals and one of its most celebrated in the span of four minutes during a quarterfinals match. His ability to surprise and startle developed a darker edge as he became addicted to cocaine. After he retired from playing soccer, his thick musculature bloated into unhealthy corpulence. Today’s dead celebrity is Diego Maradona. Famous & Gravy is created and co-hosted by Amit Kapoor and Michael Osborne. This episode was produced by Jacob Weiss.
