Maradona receives treatment after Argentina’s dramatic win

Diego Maradona was treated by paramedics after Argentina’s dramatic 2-1 win over Nigeria at the World Cup on Tuesday.

The Argentine great, 57, threatened to steal the show during the Group D clash in St Petersburg, where an 86th-minute goal from Marcos Rojo sent Jorge Sampaoli’s men into the knockout stage.

After exuberantly celebrating Lionel Messi’s classy opener, Maradona was seen sleeping.

He had a final – and rude – celebration after Rojo’s winner, offering middle-finger salutes to fans as Argentina booked a last-16 meeting with France.
