Al Jazeera reflects on the passing of World Cup-winning forward Diego Maradona, who died five years ago on Tuesday. The fifth anniversary of the death of one of football's most famous stars, Diego Maradona, was marked by his fans in Argentina on Tuesday. Considered by many the greatest football player in history, the World Cup winner enjoyed stellar careers at the club level in Spain with Barcelona and in Italy with Napoli.

Shilton's shirt, worn during the infamous 1986 World Cup match, is expected to sell for up to 300,000 at auction, marking a significant historical artifact.

While Messi’s achievements on the pitch are esteemed, this recent honor from Newell’s Old Boys further cements his legacy in football history, alongside legends like Maradona.

The court's decision to declare a mistrial is a significant turnaround in a case that has drawn national attention and sparked intense scrutiny over the healthcare provided to Maradona as he faced health challenges.
