It was a dream for many football lovers in India when Diego Armando Maradona made his maiden visit to India. The soccer-crazy city of Kolkata got upturned when the soccer genius landed in Kolkata for his two-day visit. More than ten thousand people thranglled the galleries at the Mohun Bagan ground on Sunday. Junior players were cheerful on seeing the legend up close. Argentina legend master showed of his ball skills at the Mohun Bagan Ground. The performance lasted for seven minutes included juggling the ball with his left foot, balanced it on his forehead, rolled on to his shoulder, then his thighs and finally kicked on to the stands where fans rushed to catch the gift from the God of football. Maradona later made a visit to the Mother House, the home of Missioneries of Charity, paid homage to Mother Teresa. Legends tour to India would surely be one of his unforgetful one.
