Although he physically left us on November 25, 2020, we all know that Diego Armando Maradona He continues to live among us and the theory was proven again in the middle of the war between Russia and Ukraine, in a story that has already gone viral on social networks.
That’s how he narrated Daniel Matamala, Chilean journalist who is covering for CHV News the crisis that exists in Eastern Europe, who mobilized with Argentine colleagues to Ukraine to tell from inside the unfortunate events that are happening there.
A Chilean journalist was arrested in the Ukraine, when he was covering the war. They took him to the police station, and questioned him, but he did not understand the language.
At one point, the policeman saw a Maradona tattoo on the cameraman’s leg.
That was enough for them to be released. pic.twitter.com/Oar7K2omBs

“Today, at one of the road checkpoints, the police seized our documents, cameras, telephones, and they escorted us to the police station. The first interrogations were tense: It is a country at war and spies or saboteurs are suspected”, began narrating on Instagram.
“A policeman saw the passports of my Argentine colleagues and among a lot of words in Ukrainian, he said two that we understood: Messi and Maradona”, he continued, although the alert situation continued since they did not trust them 100%, fearing that it was a trap.
Matamala said that, after a police control, the situation was very tense, but that a tattoo of Diego Maradona that an Argentine journalist had freed them from any type of consequences and they were released. pic.twitter.com/4xAVPe313R

But there was a moment when everything changed: “Our great cameraman showed that he has,a tattoo of Maradona on the calf! “They set us free and gave us our equipment back. We were rescued by the hand of D10S”, he concluded.
Juan Zamudio, a cameraman who accompanied him, has Maradona tattooed on his back, throwing a cue, one of the postcards from the 1986 World Cup in Mexico in which “Fluff” was consecrated as the best player in the world with the champion Argentine team.
It is not the first time that an event of this type has occurred, where the fact of being from the same country as someone as significant as Maradona or Messi saves your life. Really impressive.
