BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) Furious Argentines are blaming their national football team's most recent World Cup qualifying loss squarely on coach Diego Maradona.
Argentina lost to Paraguay 1-0 Wednesday, leaving the two-time world champions in danger of missing their first World Cup since 1970.
"This Maradona has shown dramatically that he wasn't born to coach, that his glorious image was useful at first, but no more," the Diario Popular newspaper wrote in Thursday's editions. "We're stuck in hell."
