While Argentina's World Cup has been something of a shambles so far, La Albiceleste have just about managed to scrape through the group stages, thanks to a 2-1 win against Nigeria tonight.
Yet however much the Argentina team has been in the spotlight, there's been a nice little sideshow developing with the antics of Diego Maradona. The World Cup winner has been a darling of RTE's cameras, who are giving us an insight into just how bonkers Maradona is.
Here is Argentina's win through the medium of Diego Maradona.
Nigeri-who? Nah we'll breeze it.
Holy Mary Mother of God we've feckin' scored!
