Description

This is the story of Argentina’s search for an heir to the great Diego Maradona, of all the highly touted players who have come and gone, and their struggles with the pressure of living up to the legend of the Argentine number 10 shirt. It was not until the emergence of Lionel Messi that the country found a worthy successor.
